Her Favorite Holiday Gift

By Lynda Sandoval

Colleen Delaney would never forget the night she and Eric Nelson went from law school sparring partners to lovers. Now, after years apart, the irresistible attorney was back in her life in a major way as they went head–to–head in a high–stakes case.

With the future of the Taka–Hanson hotel empire at stake, Eric couldn't afford to lose. But he was up against a gorgeous, take–no prisoners lawyer just as determined to win. If only their attraction would stop getting in the way. That was when Eric decided to give Colleen a special gift for the holidays one that came straight from the heart.
