Charlotte Dixon never imagined that the costume ball she went to would end up with her sleeping with a man she can't get out of her head. Ash Marlborough is used to women balking at his scars but when the beauty he would up with in his arms had no clue who he was or that his scars had nicknamed him The Beast.

Ash is on the verge of hiring an investigator when Charlotte walks into his office for a job interview, he knows it is her. For the first time in his life he wants more than a couple dates, he wants Charlotte forever but with the stepmother from hell trying to keep them apart he is biding his time until Charlotte understands what she really means to him.

I understood that Charlotte was treated horribly and second guessed Ash's intentions but it went on a little longer than I thought it would. Ash is great, he was an intriguing character. Fun read.
