A misunderstood billionaire with a playboy reputation.

Henrique Santana left Miami, Florida to prove a point—he is more than a pretty face. As a land developer for Santana Construction Company under the direction of his real-estate mogul father, Henrique will do whatever it takes to transform Historic Newport, Rhode Island's waterfront into the world's largest 5-star resort community. But, rumored as a notorious playboy, few believe him capable of securing the necessary zoning for the multi-million-dollar land deal.

An introverted bookseller fearful of losing all she holds dear.

Victoria Hathaway has worked hard to establish a thriving business along Newport Harbor and is proud of her strong roots in \"The City by the Sea.\" She'll never willingly sign over her inheritance—the multi-generation colonial home that stands in the way of the building of a 5-star resort community. Even if that means she must battle the powerful Santana Construction Company's continuous attempts to seize her land.

Sexually aroused by the enemy, the stakes are high.

Henry finds it impossible to stay away from the shy but sexy Victoria. Sparks fly when Victoria meets the handsome stranger until she discovers he's the one who is threatening to take her land. Desperate and determined, Victoria struggles to save her home and her livelihood while ignoring her growing attraction for the man who threatens to destroy it all.

A billionaire with a scandalous reputation.

Henrique \"Henry\" Santana has one shot to prove he's more than a playboy who parties on South Beach. Securing Historic Newport's waterfront for his father's fiveâ€‘star megaâ€‘resort will silence the skeptics—unless one stubborn bookseller ruins everything.

A shy bookseller with everything to lose.

Victoria Hathaway's harborâ€‘front bookshop and centuriesâ€‘old family home are her legacy, and she won't let a slick land developer erase Newport's soul—or hers.

Sexually aroused by the enemy, the stakes are high.

Henry can't stay away from the shy but undeniably alluring Victoria. There's something about the quiet, fiercely determined bookseller that captivates him. But when Victoria learns the charming stranger, she's drawn to is the very man threatening to take her family home, everything changes. Now, caught between a growing desire and a battle for her future, Victoria must choose between protecting what's hers or risking it all for a man who could take everything.
