Publisher's Synopsis
Heather is exhausted most of the time. Holding down three jobs, trying to finish high school and caring for her elderly grandfather and son are all she knows how to do. Alexander doesn't know if he wants to like the feisty baker. She has a smart mouth, beautiful, and makes his blood stir like no one ever has. But he can't trust. Not anyone. Not with his heart, not with his money and especially not with his love. He decides that while he wants her, he'd just leave her alone and go about his business. Already broke and barely hanging on, an apartment fire robs them of everything they own. The little family doesn't know what they are going to do. Devastated, she throws herself on the mercy of Alexander James and strikes a bargain. She'll sleep with him if he helps her and her little family get back on their feet. Alex agrees. Alexander wants the sexy baker in the worst way, and when they come together the attraction can't be denied. But can they breach the walls that they've built around their hearts and learn to trust?
