A shocking proposition!

Karen Ford is seeking refuge from her past when she rents a cottage in Ireland. She has no intention of getting involved with any man – especially not the brooding stranger she meets one fateful day…

Unfortunately there’s no getting away from Gray O’ Connell – the reclusive businessman turns out to be Karen’s landlord! Gray is known for his coolly aloof behaviour, so Karen’s startled when her rugged neighbour makes her a shockingly intimate proposition…

'One kiss', he said hoarsely.

Startled, Karen was still gathering her wits as he stepped towards her and hauled her against his chest. The sensation of heat and damp from his sweater enveloped her, even as the wild fresh scent of the sea and the Atlantic air invaded her senses so profoundly that she suddenly felt dizzy as well as exhilarated.

Then, as suddenly and abruptly as he had pulled her into his arms, Gray released her.

'Are you okay?'

He voiced his concern almost grudgingly, as if he couldn't wait to be gone. Karen suddenly wanted him gone too. Now she understood why hate and love were so closely intertwined.

'Why should you care?' she tried, but was un¬able to prevent the sob that accompanied her words.

'I ''do'' care, damn you!'

Shaking her head, Karen blinked up at him through eyes that were helplessly brimming with tears. 'No, you don't. Just go. Please... just go.'
