The #1 New York Times–bestselling "word artist" focuses on the passion that develops between a model and the man captivated by her (Los Angeles Daily News).

Mode Magazine is one of New York City's premier fashion glossies and Hilary Baxter has just been contracted as one of their models. The culture shock she experiences between her small-town Kansas life and the glamour of the Big Apple is nothing compared to the thrill she gets when Mode's charismatic publisher Bret Bardoff takes a personal interest in guiding her career.

Unable to resist Bret's seductive allure, Hilary's infatuation turns into love—a love she hopes is strong enough for Bret to see the person behind the beauty.
