Tempting the Negotiator

As soon as Sass Walker's high-powered heels hit the New Zealand ground, she knows she's out of her element. But cool and professional as any top New York lawyer should be, she's determined to get the local tree huggers onside with her company's proposed resort. Win this, and the brass ring is hers. Lose it, and, well, that's not an option, with her board seat at stake.

But here, the best seats on the board are out on the surf. Nobody believes that more than freewheeling Jake Finlayson, champion surfer turned environmental hero...and leader of the opposition...and "gorgeous." A dangerous and worthy opponent. To fight him and win, she'll have to loosen a button or two. Get her hair mussed. Let go and ride the wave.
