Taking refuge at Rohampton Park was her only choice. But being stranded with the man whose long-ago betrayal still stings is bound to unleash all sorts of tempests. Obviously, the thing to do is to declare a truce. Yet Ardith soon discovers that maintaining a polite distance is easier said than done. If only St. John weren't so attractive. If only he didn't provoke in her the oddest yearnings. If only she knew a way to safeguard her heart...
