It began one rainy morning when a stranger literally fell at his feet, or did it actually? If there's one thing Ryan Masters knows, it's women. And he wants nothing to do with this spoiled, shallow temptress who stumbles into his life, running roughshod with it. To make matters worse, she is the wife of a senator and future presidential candidate. But when he finds his resistance waning at every juncture, it's time to change tactics. She will be his. And she will submit willingly. Lucy Hewitt, adamant in never being a Mrs. to anybody again, wants to test the tales of a devilish seducer's magic touch-Venus Butterfly-she's heard so much about, but could never experience while married. But his touch is more than she bargained for. It has the power to melt her body and heart. He will tempt her, entice her, and educate her in ways she never imagined.
