A Careful Wife — Lindsay Armstrong

Marriage merger!

Honor was convinced Ryan Bailey was looking for a "careful," suitable wife. She was equally certain he'd never consider her an ideal candidate! And she was glad. Getting involved with Ryan would be a bad idea. For one thing, he was her boss. For another, he clearly wanted someone meek and obedient....

Only, it transpired that Ryan had a very different sort of woman in mind. Someone passionate; able to stand up to him -- someone like Honor! And once their relationship had crossed the line from business to personal, there was no turning back!

Hero: Ryan Bailey
Heroine: Honor Lingard
