Monique Mackenzie has everything a modern woman could dream of—a fabulous career, great clothes, a lovely home and wonderful friends. She could have anyone she wants. But one man doesn't seem to notice her at all—her boss.

Confident and stoic, Jerome Fontaine is so guarded at work that Monique suspects him of leading a secret life. When she takes to following him, she learns that she is right. Jerome is so much more than he presents to the corporate world they share and he has no intention of opening up about himself. But Jerome has never encountered the tenacious force that is Monique on a mission.

As Monique unravels the mysteries that keep Jerome locked in a role that no longer suits him, she also finds herself changing. The playful Monique Mackenzie who's spent her whole life toying with men must confront the very frightening prospect of falling completely for one. Once she unleashes Jerome's passions, she can no longer deny her own.
