Sullivan's Woman (Language of Love #22)

He loomed out of the fog, like some mythic figure, but Cassidy St. John soon discovered Colin Sullivan was flesh and blood and all man. He had fame, wealth, charisma and a reputation with the ladies. Yet, from the moment Colin focused his mesmerizing attention on Cass, she was torn between prudence and the irresistible desire to be reckless with her heart.

Colin was unaccustomed to refusal, particularly from women. Yet Cass intrigued him as no other woman ever had. She had spirit, beauty but it was her innocence that drove him to hold back and for once in his life not simply take what he wanted. No, it would require more subtlety patience tenderness than he'd ever shown to make her Sullivan's woman. Rated '3/5 - Open door' for steam/spice/heat level.
