Dangerous because he's engaged--to her newfound half sister. One thing a Gibbons woman doesn't do is steal her sister's man. Yet for the first time, Dawn may care about love more than money…

Xavier Hughes isn't easily thrown, but the electricity between him and Dawn leaves him unsettled. And when his fiancée insists he investigate Dawn's background, it only pushes him closer to the one woman he should resist. Soon, both Xavier and Dawn will have to face the consequences of breaking the family rules...
