Sophie thought marriage was for the birds!
When she saw her boss, Alexander Paget, jilted at the altar, Sophie's heart bled for him. But she didn't appreciate the rush of interest the ex-bridegroom soon showed in her.
Sophie refused to become a balm for Alexander's wounded ego. She'd already had it with men, caring for her brothers and widowed father. And now she wanted to escape from domesticity--and from Alexander.
Yet Sophie rather enjoyed the novel sensation of being chased by the man who'd previously ignored her as a woman. Besides, anyone nicknamed Alexander the Great naturally boasted irresistible powers of persuasion!
