FROM POPULAR ROMANCE AUTHOR REBECCA FAIRFAX Book two in the Rent-a-Perfect-Gentleman series &– a newly edited version Winter—spring? No—winter sparks! Meet Hugo Winter, gorgeous fifty-something all-round perfect gentleman, and Alessa Marks, sexy late-twenties local journalist—and not really an elegant lady. While entrepreneur Hugo is at meetings with city luminaries and pitching venture capital ideas to fellow businessmen, Alessa's probably chasing a reclusive rock star for an interview or sticking her nose into a local scandal for her column, Sparks, in the Montford Herald. When an unexpected meeting just before Christmas brings never-the-twain Hugo and Alessa together, sparks combust. But can a winter&–spring relationship, particularly one that starts out with passion hot enough to melt snow, really work out? Especially when Hugo's reluctant to speak about his past, making Alessa determined to ferret out his secrets? Will their love wither in the frost or bloom with the spring?
