Master carpenter, Martina MJ Jenkins, has built plenty of structures in her day, but none as sturdy as the walls shes built around her heart. After crossing paths with a sexy U.S. Senator, with gorgeous brown eyes and a seductive smile, her resolve to stay unattached, crumbles. Martina is determined to steer clear, but the Senators kisses are too delicious to resist. Third generation U.S. Senator, Paul Kendricks, faithfully represents his state and is loyal to the familys political legacy. Still he yearns for a wife, children, and a new career far away from the political arena. Too bad the object of his desire is the one woman who wants nothing to do with commitment. But the sparks that fly between them cant be ignored. As Paul chips away at the wall Martina has built, can he convince her to put her fears aside and open her heart to love?
