  • Her first desire : A logical man's guide to dangerous women, book 2

    Creator

    Maxwell, Cathy

    Abstract

    She arrived in town, beautiful and bold and declaring that she has inherited property that Ned Thurlowe has already claimed. A member of the local Logical Men's Society, Ned prides himself on thinking clearly and calmly at all times. And it's clear that the meeting place of society--a local tavern--is his, even if the men have turned it to shambles. Though Ned challenges Gemma's claim to the property, he behaves most illogically, for though he wants to dismiss her, he also can't help but desire her.
