Awakened Desire — Cynthia White

Harrison Coulter was only looking for a quiet life in the small, out-of-the-way Maryland Eastern Shore town. A place to lick his wounds and mind his own business. That was before the rugged millionaire had his first run in with sassy, high-powered financial analyst, Charise Smith. Charise was also hiding out from a devastating business fiasco and an equally devastating broken engagement. From their first meeting, they got on each others' last nerves. Under each others' skins. So hell would freeze over before either would give in to the passion that soon started to sizzle between them.
