Mr. Gus Galanos sure wasn't the friendly type. From the moment the stone-fated, sexy guest slammed into Phoebe Shaw's bed and breakfast, he hadn't smiled, said two words or take one bite of her country cooking. One thing the very secretive Mr. Galanos did do was look at Phoebe, long and hard - with hunger in those dark eyes.... Gus had been ordered to unwind at Phoebe's old house in the boondocks, but an anti-terrorist agent wasn't supposed to take naps and sample homemade biscuits! Nor was he supposed to ache with the need to sample the sensual pleasures of a nice lady with kissable, pink lips and a heart as big as North Carolina. A heart a man like him could never have.
