Escorting an English Heiress should be no trouble for an experienced man of the world... or so he thought.
Miss Eleanor Craven is much more than she appears. The daughter of a world traveller, she's confident and rebellious - and refuses to be chaperoned. No self-respecting adventurer has a chaperone! The man her aunt has sent as escort would only hinder Eleanor with his strong opinions and tall, dark good looks... and his muscular body that has Eleanor thinking more about sensual trysts than exciting travels. So she must give him the slip - but perhaps one night in his arms wouldn't hurt before she disappears.
Peter Rivers loves his work in the California vineyard he manages. So when he's asked to escort the family's niece on her journey he agrees without hesitation, positive he can resist the fiery attraction he feels whenever she's around. After all, Eleanor may be fearless, but she's also an innocent in all ways, and he won't betray the trust of his employers or ruin their good name - not when his past tarnished his reputation beyond repair. No, somehow he'll have to avoid temptation.
Little does he know Eleanor is hell-bent on seduction.
