It had begun like any other assignment. Until the night she encountered Danya Stepanov atop a windswept cliff...then moved in with him. Her immediate feminine response to his masculinity frightened her, for Sidney Blakely didn't do the fair-lady bit. She led during slow dances. Her sole experience with sex had been fast and more about physical fitness. And she believed that home was where the photo shoot du jour was. But Danya was confident enough to allow her to lead.

And Sidney had never believed that such a gift was intended for a woman like her.
