Nicole Castleton was a shrewd businesswoman with a Texas-sized stubborn streak. She needed a husband in a hurry, and no one but her ex, Miguel Mendoza, would do! Yet she had her doubtsâsweet, sexy Miguel still shook her to the core of her expensive Castleton boots. And when it came right down to it, she still desired the man beyond words. Was it a ghost standing on his doorstep? Or could this really be his Nicole? The girl who broke Miguelâs heart ten years ago was backâwith a crazy proposal for a strictly business marriage! A desire for paybackâand one last round of romance with the one whoâd gotten awayâtempted Miguel beyond any dollar amount. But this time, he wasnât so sure heâd be able to walk away from the woman of his dreams. . . .
