But in my defense, it was gourmet cheese... you know, the expensive stuff.How did Wesley Morgan, hotel billionaire and recovering alcoholic, end up sending a woman a basket of cheese?Well, it was only one of two morsels of information I knew about Shayla Mitchel that I thought would get her attention.The bartender across the dimly lit club took me by surprise the moment I saw her, but then I ran into her twice more upon my return to Santa Barbara, California, and that's when I knew I didn't stand a chance.You see, I never expected Shayla.

All I never knew I needed. But she's putting up a fight and testing us both.Can I convince her to let me in?
