Jared is on the fast track to success. He'll need a wife, but his adorable redheaded assistant is more bedroom than boardroom. Still, he can't get her, and the stormy night they shared together, out of his mind.

When Jared overhears Paige telling a friend she's pregnant, he wants to do the right thing. But Paige isn't willing to settle. Marriage means love–and until that's on the table, there's no deal.
