He learns to be a man, and learns to appreciate beautiful women, but none of them interests him enough to keep around. Then Graeme is hired by a very rich man to locate the half-sister he hadn't known existed until his father's sudden death. It's just another missing person's case to him-until he meets Kiara Shannon. Even dirty and disheveled, Kiara is feisty, brave, mysterious-and very beautiful underneath her act of bravado.
