An Irresistible Bachelor

Discover the addictive J.R. Ward . . .

For struggling art conservationist Callie Burke, the chance to restore a world-famous painting is the opportunity of a lifetime - one that no one in her right mind would turn down. Call her crazy, but Callie has serious reservations about working with the painting's owner. Warm and sexy, Jack Walker makes no attempt to hide the strong attraction he feels for Callie - even as she tries to keep their relationship professional. Now, cocooned in his studio, she will either have to learn to ignore the man and concentrate on the masterpiece . . . or give in to the kind of passion that can never be captured on canvas.

Jack Walker is a practical man who runs his life, his empire and his fortune effortlessly. Yet from the moment he met Callie Burke, he wanted her with all the intensity of a first crush. As he gets to know her, the desire blossoms into something more - and Jack finds that for the first time in his life he is leading with his heart instead of his head.
