'The moment head chef Lorenzo Nesta hears the familiar clack of stiletto on stone floor, a shiver of anticipation runs up his spine. Seeing Scarlett's Italian passion stifled inside a staid suit fills him with regret; it had been his actions years ago that had turned her soul to ice.

'Mariel and Dane were childhood friends, until the night Mariel left to study fashion overseas, when she discovers, in graphic detail, that Dane doesn't want her the way she wants him. Ten years on, she's back in Australia, a successful photographic model. And Dane is looking better than ever. Too bad, because she's sworn off men. But no-one except Dane knows she's broke, betrayed by her French business partner/lover.

'A reluctant Bachelor of the Year, Dane is definitely a no-strings man. Family and commitment are not on his agenda. He wants to concentrate on his professional image rather than his celebrity status and the string of women constantly following his every move. And what better way than to have a regular woman like Mariel on his arm?

'Until their passionate nights together lead to much more than either of them intended…'

'Carefree, content, young Kerry Derwin wanted life to go on forever just the way it was. To Kerry, love was a lot of nonsense. Certainly she wasn't interested in marrying and settling down. And every one in the village knew it.

'So she wasn't very pleased at the upheaval caused by the arrival of a film unit making a movie on the moors. As for the star of the film, Paul Devron, he was conceited and a confirmed ladies' man. Kerry had no intention of adding herself to his long list of conquests.

'But that, of course, was before she actually met Paul Devron...'
