Book Description

Blurb

From the back cover of Mills & Boon Modern Heat, September 2009, UK Edition:

Cold, hard business…

Cool Jakob Andersen likes working with extremes, and the frozen plains of Norway suit his business style. But with Lydia Sheridan accompanying him on business, the temperature is about to soar…

Red-hot passion!

Jakob wants a seven-day affair, and Lydia is finding her resistance melting away… It’s hard to keep saying no when her body is screaming yes! But it will take more than a week to thaw her boss’s buried heart – though with passion this hot, anything is possible!

Excerpt

From the inside cover of Mills & Boon Modern Heat, September 2009, UK Edition:

'Lydia.' He touched the back of his fingers lightly against her cheek. 'I think we need to talk.'

Uh-oh. Here it came.

'I need to be fair with you, Lydia. Whatever this thing is between us--and I can't explain it either--I can't offer you a future. But there's no reason why we can't have a mad fling and blow each other's minds for the next few days. Well, apart from the fact that I'm your boss, and ethically that makes this completely wrong.'

But at that precise moment he couldn't give a damn about ethics.

The only thing that filled his head was the need to touch her again.

'I have a suggestion.' He paused. 'We spend a week here. Together. And this thing between us...we can get it out of our systems.'

'You're saying we should have an affair?'

'With limits. So we know the deal right from the start.'

'An affair,' she reapted. 'For a week. A seven-night stand.'

'Put like that, it sounds tacky.' He grimaced. I'm trying not to be dishonarable. I can't offer you more than an affair, Lydia. I can't offer anyone more than that.'

She licked her lower lip, and he almost lost control again.

'This is mad, she whispered. 'You're my boss.'
