Charlie thinks she can resist me, but I'll wear her down. I can see how badly she fights herself. It's in her eyes, her voice, and the body responds to my touch.

My chance to prove how right we are is so close I can taste it. She'll falter, and when she does, I'll be ready to win her heart.

Charlie

My entire life has been focused on one thing-my job.

I never allowed a man to distract me from my goal, until Mark Dixon.

Now, he's invading my thoughts, my life, and my heart.

This can never work, though, we're both too stubborn, too calculating, and too controlling.

I fight to resist the temptations of his delicious body, seductive smirk, and sarcastic mouth. But I know I'm defenseless against him, and in the end, he'll force me to surrender.
