"Fake an engagement, are you serious?"

When Samantha Abbott's boss, Richard Bohlen, asked her to help protect him from an old flame, she thought the idea was outrageous. Ridiculous! She couldn't understand why anyone would have to hide behind a bogus engagement in order to repel obvious advances.

That was before she encountered Westfield, Connecticut's most dynamic new businessman, Simon Radnor, and discovered she needed some protection of her own.

Simon as much as told her he would have an affair with her. And Samantha, a traditionalist--especially in matters of love--knew she would have to take drastic measures to keep Simon's prophecy from coming true.
