She'd returned for one reason- to oversee the takeover of her ailing father's mill by a rival company. She intended to finalize the deal and go back to Italy.Then she met the owner of J.C. Enterprises, Jack Chabrol- the boy she'd left behind. Only Jack was no longer a boy; he was a man- a man bent on revenge. He had never forgiven Jessica for leaving him to marry someone else, nor had he forgotten the love they'd once shared. Jack was determined to possess Jessica, and she had only one defense against his anger: her love.
