Book Description

Testing the limits

Short of calling out the cavalry, Sophie could only do her best when it came to handling the enigmatic Maximilian Grant and his headstrong daughter. The catalog of disasters that had followed since she'd agreed to become the teenager's companion were disturbing to her equilibrium as her new employer.

Under Maximilian's autocratic rule, Sophie and her past were subjected to enraging scrutiny. Moreover, she and the arrogant Mr. Grant alternated between being defiant adversaries and would-be lovers. Sophie knew there would be an explosive outcome---but would they emerge fighting...or loving?
