Hope:
Jackson Murphy is not only jaw-droppingly handsome, he's charismatic and spontaneous and…fun. Everything I'm not. I know his type: the wild guy, the bad boy, always gets what he wants. I know from experience it's in my best interests to keep him at a distance. But then his smile and that knight-in-shining-armor thing he's got going on are really irresistible. If only I could trust my heart, trust him.

Hope Cooper is sinfully delicious. I can't keep my eyes off her. I'm all for instant attraction but I never saw the other thing coming, that swift and overpowering need to protect and cherish. She does something to me, makes me want to take her in my arms and shut out the world, keep her safe. She's the quiet, polite type, but it only takes one kiss to give me a taste of the passion stirring beneath the reserve. And one taste will never be enough.
