from fictiondb: ....NEVER A BRIDE-- Hilary Campbell had sworn off the male species--for their own protection! Her wild and whimsical ways had plunged too many men off the deep end. To be precise, Hilary had been engaged seven times. So when stalwart, sexy Grady Thompson crashed his way into her life, Hilary prayed her growing attraction to him would cease and desist. Hilary was trouble. Grady knew it the day he set eyes on her sensational body--instead of the road--and trashed his T-bird. But he wanted this luscious lady in his life anyway. He could withstand the expensive shopping sprees. He could choke down her questionable cooking. He could even accept her jailbird buddies. But could sensible Grady handle being fiance number eight?

From Susan Spencer Paul's website: Hugh Caldwell is a trouble-making rogue running from a past he refuses to face. Rosaleen Sarant is a lady in distress running from a future she won't accept. He's rude and stubborn; she's demanding and obstinate. A perfect match. When they find themselves thrown together in an ancient, decaying castle, sparks begin to fly.
