"Sydney Evans is no stranger to hard work. It's the one constant in her life. And with no family or friends to speak of it's been easy to pour everything she has into her career as general counsel for Blackstone Holdings. She wants for nothing. Until her boss offers her an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. All she has to do in return is marry his good-for-nothing son. Scott Blackstone used to be a part whore. Pardon, party animal. He hasn't been that guy in a long time though. Not since he moved to Wyoming, bought a failing cattle ranch, and turned it into a profitable business. All is good. Until a phone call from his father threatens the quiet, simple life he's built. Marry or lose everything. And to a woman who can't stand him, no less. Well, Scott is not going down without a fight. He's never going back to Manhattan. Not if he can help it." -- Page [4] of cover.
