Heart of Stone by Janet Dailey
A New Hampshire playboy is about to meet his match in this Americana romance from the New York Times-bestselling author.
Twenty-two-year-old Stephanie Hall has heard the rumors about the White Boar Inn's playboy owner, but never met the man in person. So when circumstances force Perry-Stephanie's brother and the inn's manager-to put her in charge of greeting Brock on his arrival, she's more than a little curious about the man whose very name sends the female staff atwitter.
New Hampshire's White Mountains are cloaked in vibrant autumnal colors when Brock drives up with a curvy blonde in tow. He's every bit as handsome as she had heard, and it's a struggle for Stephanie to maintain her composure in the presence of his overpowering virility. Perry warned her that Brock's seductive air hid a heart of stone, but Stephanie never expected she would be willing to throw caution to the wind for just a moment in those arms.
