General Note "The most interesting deals happen behind closed doors..."--Cover.
Summary, Etc. "Alexandra Atkinson's talent for spotting successful business ideas has helped enrich her father's company while leaving her with little time for a social life-and certainly nothing as silly as love. But when her father hints that Alex will need to marry as well if she ever wants to win the approval of the company's far more fusty board members, she hatches her most ambitious plan yet: a fake courtship that lasts just long enough to see an important deal through and secure her place at the head of the company. As the son of the Atkinson's coachman, Lucien Taylor grew up admiring the family from a distance-and pining for Winifred, the youngest sister. But when he finally accepts that she will never see him as anything other than a playmate, Lucien leaves home to make his fortune. Now he's back and in search of funding after his duplicitous partner ruins his business. Help comes from the most unexpected place when Alexandra, the eldest Atkinson sister known for her icy beauty and infamously brusque manner, makes a proposition: she will help him secure what he needs to start his business if he pretends to court her for a few weeks. Her offer is too good to pass up, but the more time they spend together, the more Lucien realizes that a fake courtship with Alex isn't enough. He wants something real"-- Provided by publisher.
