From Back Cover:
Jane Fitzsimmons never regretted being born a woman - until the London shipping business she ran was cruelly snatched from her capable hands by her cold, uncompromising father. To reclaim her dream, she must marry. Only then, with her husband's permission, may she return to the helm of Fitzsimmons Shipworks. But the only suitor who stirs her blood just happens to be the very worst scoundrel of all...Devilishly handsome Philip Wessington seeks a wife's fortune without the bother of a wife. Though cynical and mistrustful, he cannot deny the need Jane arouses in him, nor the logic of their agreed-upon marriage. Yet a man who's been hurt by love is not easily reformed, not even by a good - and wholly desirable - woman. Unless he's willing to forget the past and follow his heart
