Terms of surrender

the long version

Since the turn of the century, the elegant and fashionable DeWilde stores have helped brides around the world realize the fantasy of their "special day." The store: DeWildes, Paris. Merchandising manager Megan DeWilde had major plans for expansion of DeWilde's Paris operation, and for a step up the corporate ladder, right along with her twin brother, Gabriel. The stakes: Prime real estate on the Rue de la Paix, site of the innovative Galeries DeWilde, if Megan got her dream. But Phillip Villeneuve, scion of a rival retailing family, was after the same property. And despite himself, he was after Megan, too. Caught in the middle of a feud neither understood, they were powerless against the sizzling chemistry that overrode property, family and every shred of common sense.
