Synopsis

She had never been in love--not even once. Did she know enough about it to protect a wealthy girl from a handsome, ruthless fortune hunter? Carrie Belding was a young art teacher. She needed money to spend the summer painting in Europe. And so she had agreed to watch over Maria Waldron, to accompany her to La Ferme, a run-down, isolated inn in the South of France. But who would protect Carrie from her own turbulent emotions or from the Jarret brothers--two men as different as night and day--handsome, charming Egan and sullen, secretive Conor, a man who made her tremble between dread and desire at his touch.
