  Closing the Deal
  
  
  A Wicked Warrens story
  
  
  When stubborn meets sexy, love is up for grabs...but one of them is playing
  for keeps.
  
  
  Derrick Warren has lusted after Sydney Fields ever since he first spotted her.
  All he has to do is let the old Warren magic do its thing...until an ex with
  an axe to grind shows up. To his utter shock, he realizes he’s going to have
  to work to win her over.
  
  
  Thanks to her mother’s bad example, Sydney is determined to never need a man.
  Just when she’s moved Derrick to her “loser” column, though, she’s tricked
  into giving him another chance. To her surprise, he not only satisfies her
  deepest desires, she finds herself actually craving his company.
  
  
  But when she realizes they’re making love, not just having sex, her old
  instincts kick in. Because she’s starting to like the man, not just his body.
  And that, more than anything, scares the hell out of her...
