A man in love is nothing but a fool. Mitchell Williams is convinced of it. Many of San Francisco's loveliest women have led the handsome shipping magnate to bed, but none will lead him to the altar. All of Mitch's firm convictions are stripped away when he is shanghaied by an enemy and shipwrecked in the South Pacific. Espri, his island rescuer, is worlds away from the calculating beauties he has known, and as innocent and gentle as she is seductive. Forced to marry, Mitch intends to keep his distance. But no obstacles can withstand the heat of that searing, irresistible island fire.
