FOR SALE: BACHELOR #23--One unbelievably desirable banker. Kisses could melt the U.S. mint. Short-term loans only. Former debutante Holly Prescott had shunned her wealth and its trappings for a simpler life. But a foolhardy promise to 'buy a bachelor' at a charity auction led her to an unexpected man: successful banker Eric Alden. Eric refused to submit to the highest bidder. Instead, he targeted Holly--a woman he could trust--to be his date. The transaction would be simple--no strings attached. Yet the attraction between them was too magnetic to ignore--and too explosive to continue.
