Hotel chain mogul Sol DuMont is about to learn that some of lifeâs biggest surprises come in deceptively small packagesânamely a petite heiress named Rain whoâs hell-bent on upsetting her familyâs expectationsâin this first book in the all new series by Thea de Salle, set against the sultry backdrop of New Orleans.
Thirty-seven-year-old Sol DuMont is a divorcee and the owner of a mid-sized hotel chain in New Orleans. Since Hurricane Katrina, his fatherâs death, and the decision that he and his ex-wife Maddy are far better off friends than lovers, heâs lost interest in almost everything he held dearâparties, people, and pushing limits.
All his limits.
Then Arianna Barrington checks into his hotel.
Twenty-four-year-old Arianna âRainâ Barrington could have been societyâs sweetheart. Her family is moneyed, connected press darlings, and make sweeping headlines from coast to coast for reasons both good and bad. But when her mother shoves her at Charles Harwoodâthe obnoxious, entitled heir of Harwood Corpâto cement a billion-dollar business merger, Rain does the only thing she can think of to escape: she creates a scandal so big Harwood doesnât want her anymore before fleeing to New Orleans for much-needed rest and relaxation.
All she wants is jazz piano, beignets, and to sail the Mississippi. What she gets is Sol DuMont, a whirlwind affair, and a hands-on education in sex, power play, and pushing limits.
All her limits.
