Scandalous Seduction (Harlequin Presents, No 1589)

the long version

Small-town schoolteacher meets handsome author—they fall madly in love and live happily ever after. Only in fairy tales. And Harriet Weatherspoon had stopped believing in those when her sister ran off with her fiance. And though Brad Barrington—famous throughout Australia for his sexy blockbusters and his beautiful women—might be her new neighbor, she had his number. Like those male characters in his books, he played the seduction game on automatic pilot. But how long could Harriet hide behind her cool aloofness when Brad used every opportunity to warm her up?
