title: Silk on the Skin
author: Cajio, Linda
description: Cass Lindley believed in never mixing business with pleasure, but when Dallas Carter came to enlist her support in ousting a crooked corporate head, she felt her resistance melt under the white-hot gleam in his eyes.  Was the lingerie empire in which she was a major stockholder being mishandled, or were Dallas's smooth assurances only a predator's ploy to romance her stock away? When he dared to discover the truth, she agreed  --  but only if he spent a week working beside her and proved he could be trusted.  Tempted by the lady, Dallas accepted the sweet deal...but ended up courting his old-fashioned girl, instead of her votes! Dallas made her laugh, filled her with yearning, and taught her passion she'd never believed would be hers. In return, Cass wrapped her pirate's heart in silken bonds, then surrendered her own to his keeping. Dallas admired her spirit and vowed he'd accept her decision, whatever it was  --  but would love make the choice impossible?
