In pursuit of love

the long version

How to handle a heartbreaker... "What sends bachelors running for their lives? Weddings and babies! Starting to look at furniture, develop an interest in expensive rings, muse aloud about the names you're going to give your children." Blythe looked everything she was not -- sophisticated, experienced and a woman who had many men in her past. Christian Ballantine, on the other hand, was a heartbreaker of the first order, and his woman-of-the-moment was Blythe. He intended to sleep with her and she was determined he would not. But how was she to divert him? She would ask him to marry her -- that would frighten him off!
