Fifteen years earlier, Perry Rickson shared a passionate encounter on a moonlit beach with a girl he knew only as Ann. Now, running for state governor, he encounters her again—as an investigative reporter covering his campaign. He's never forgotten her quick mind, the feel of her sun-warmed skin or her lovely face. But it's obvious she doesn't recognize him. Ann finds Perry uncomfortably nice...and sexy. But she's determined to dig up whatever dirt she can find on this golden boy candidate from the influential Rickson family.

Ann feels warm in Perry’s company. His touch of her hand comforts and arouses her.
“Please,” he says, smiling at her, “can we hold off on the recorder a minute? Tell me a bit about yourself.”
Ann tries to compose her thoughts. Heavens! He sure caught me off guard. I have to get this interview back on track.
Her voice is even, despite her thundering heart. “I worked hard to become a reporter, so my job is important to me. Now, I’d appreciate it if we focused on the interview for my paper. So tell me. Who are you really?”
Perry’s eyes narrow. The guy who wanted—still wants, to make love to you…
