The only thing worse than timing is miscommunication, especially when one person thinks the other isn't interested. When Cammie Spencer is left to sort out the mess that's becoming her life, she reflects on what she thinks she knows versus what is reality. Has her perception of what's expected of her high society life kept her from the one person she's always wanted but resigned herself to never having? After all, her fiancé is definitely not what she thought he was. And to make matters worse, or maybe better, Holden Masters has always been the most tempting form of forbidden love. She can't deny he seems to know her-her needs-better than anyone. For Holden Masters, his haunted past collides with the present. His plans, which seemed so clear, are muddied at best. Can he finally say the words he couldn't all those years ago, finally backing up his words of affection with actions? Or is he really the player Cammie's long pegged him to be? Now that the auction is over, it's possible Holden Masters has already won the prize before he's even had The Date.
