The attraction they felt - had nothing to do with love!

After years away, Rebecca returned to her grandfather's Australian farm. Mistakenly, in the dark, she thought her brother had come to greet her. But it was no brother who gave her that passionate, lingering kiss--a kiss that, incredibly, she responded to wholeheartedly.

It was Byron Willoughby, the farm's new owner. And the startlingly handsome stranger soon managed to hire Rebecca as full-time baby-sitter for his little girl.

Alarmed by her yearnings, Rebecca wanted to escape. Yet despite her fears, she became entangled in Byron's life . . . and in his painful past.
