Knowing it was her own fault didn't ease her frustration. Who'd have expected the consequences of her foolhardy act to save her brother's career would pursue her from England to Australia? Seemingly, she'd left a clue that Matthew Grieve had followed.
And it was all quite unnecessary, Matthew was not the ogre she'd been led to believe he was. Nor was Jessica the woman Matthew had pictured.
The struggle between them to even the score was powerful and stormy. The impact on their lives was equally shattering when their feelings for each other turned to love...
A woman commits larceny for her step-brother's sake, unwittingly making a very angry enemy--a stale sounding plot that is told here with surprising freshness and charm. The heroine is very tall, strong and clever and she and the hero duke it out with both their wits and their bodies. Although published in 1985, this feels less dated than many more recent Harlequin Presents.
