Cameron Crane is a wealthy businessman who hired Jennifer Talbot, a marketing genius, to launch his Australian surf board company into the US market.  He also likes control and, "Luckily, he had a foolproof plan for maintaining control of their relationship.  He'd sleep with her", even though he doesn't find her appearance totally attractive.  "She looked, he thought, like one of those American film and telly stars: tense, tight-arsed, and anorexic."  That's his motivation for being naked in the hot tub when they first meet, and for pursuing a physical relationship with her.Jennifer is engaged when she first meets Cam, and isn't impressed with his actions, but they eventually kiss, and later, have sex before she breaks off her engagement.  They live in the "now" and both are surprised by how things turn out, since they don't discuss their relationship.  Neither one has much depth of character.  An easily forgettable story.
