The last thing Vance Banning needed was a charitable neighbor--especially the blond cheerleader type! But he had no idea how persistent Shane Abbott could be when it came to giving a helping hand--or a loving heart.
For a while it looked as though the Civil War would break out all over again, Only this time, it would be a battle of wills -- Shane determined to break down his resistance, Vance equally determined to remain invincible to her charming assault. He'd been burned once, and only a fool fell for the same innocent act twice. And Vance was no fool.
