In the jewel-like setting of a South African resort, billionaire Radd hires Brinley to fill in as the florist for a society wedding. Brin finds out too late that the bride is her sister's rival. Brin plans to finish the work as soon as possible and stay out of sight of the wedding party.
But Radd has other plans. He never lets women get under his skin, but there's something about Brin he can't resist. He convinces her to spend the week with him in the resort's private quarters, away from the prying eyes of the guests.
Brin knows that a calculating man like Radd won't fall for a straightforward woman like her. But somehow, she manages to see behind his defenses. Is there a chance the two of them could have a future? And what happens when Brin's relationship to the bride is revealed?
I loved the high emotion and sexual tension is this book. It's something of a slow burn, with Radd being careful not to pressure Brin into something she's not ready for. The main characters are both children of narcissistic parents and so can relate to what the other has suffered. The book is a quick read with a satisfying ending.
Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received.

Radd is always in control especially since his parents death as he had his brother try to rebuild their legacy so when he meets Brin who he needs to do the flowers at a wedding that could mean them getting another piece of their legacy back he doesn't expect her to speak her mind or have a good bit of sass to her. Brin knows what the likes of Radd are like, entitled and think everyone must do their bidding well she thought Radd would be like that but they both learn that neither are what they expect and the attraction is undeniable however neither think it will work so try and fight it but its a losing battle as they slowly see how good they are for each other and allow feeling they didn't think they would ever feel grow. A fantastic read which has me waiting for the next book to see what happens to Digby when he meets his match!
