Twelve Scorching Days

Ignatius "Scorch" Madigan is all alone. At last. He's left his band and retreated to the seclusion of a friend's beach cottage. He has a couple of weeks to pull together his first solo album and prove to the world-and himself-that he has what it takes to be a star in his own right. Sarita Dunway needs a refuge.\When her careless mistake injures Scorch, she jumps at every excuse to rush to the cottage to 'help' him out. Even cleaning for the surly musician is better than being forced into cheerful Christmas closeness with her godmother's son. He doesn't want to need her. She only wants to use him. But what they unwrap in each other might be the biggest holiday surprise of all.
