From the moment Colin Braugher meets millionaire Grady James, he has the other man's number -- spoiled, obnoxious, and worst of all, fake. Every word out of Grady's mouth sounds calculated, and Colin isn't going to fall for his insincere charm.  Grady has never cared about the Heart to Help Charity before, and Colin isn't going to stand by and let this important cause be used for Grady's self-aggrandizing.<br><br>For his part, Grady wants only the best for his grandmother's favorite charity. Confused by his cold reception, alone in a strange city, and fascinated by a man who seems to want nothing to do with him, Grady is at loose ends. Until Colin gives an inch, and Grady knows he can have so much more than that if Colin would only see the man he truly is ...

The Heart to Help

“If I got everything I wanted, you’d let me take you back to my place tonight.”


“I can’t. Even if I wanted to indulge you, my study group is meeting at eight. And I definitely don’t want to be wearing the same clothes when I go to meet Arturo.”


Right. Arturo. And Colin’s all too eager enthusiasm for his date with him the following day. Colin didn’t want to indulgeGrady. He wanted to impress Arturo.


The rest of Grady’s euphoria promptly disappeared.


“No, you’re right.” He masked his mood by sitting up and reaching for his pants. “I’ll probably pass out as soon as I hit the pillow anyway.”


“Do you feel okay to drive?” Colin sat up, too, grimacing when he noticed how far away his clothes were. “I don’t mind just biking home.”


“Yeah, I’m better now.” Which was a lie, but there was no way he could last the ride back to his condo with Colin in reaching distance and untouchable. “You go ahead and grab your bike. I’ll see you on Monday.”
