CHAPTER ONE

Copyright © 2012 by Harlequin Books S.A.

Three weeks. That's all the time Penelope Hart has left as the White House Social Secretary. And all the time she has left to convince her boss, First Lady Ramsey, to write her a glowing recommendation letter. Which means she has to stay in the first lady's good graces-and stay far away from the first son, Kellan Ramsey.

Only Kellan has no intention of staying away. He's waited years for the chance to be with Penelope again and he's not going to waste a second, let alone three weeks. He's convinced this is their time...but will Kellan's executive pursuit cost Penelope her dreams?
