Blurb:
Jenna West has no idea what she might have done to her new tenant Mike Hightower. He's surly and hateful every single time they meet, and he looks at her as though he despises her.
He does despise her. She's from the Middle East, and people like her killed his friend Ramirez when the army sent them to Iraq.
Will the power of love work its magic to soften Mike's bitter hatred, or will he ignore his growing attraction for his pretty landlady?
Last Week:
He still wouldn’t pay her any attention. She stood and watched him as he walked down the sidewalk.
“Is the duplex still available, Ms. West?”
“Yes.”
“Well, if it’s okay I’d like to rent it.”
She nodded. “I have a child so no loud parties or noise after nine.”
“Fine.”
“I’ll need a deposit.”
“How much?”
“Six hundred.”

This week:
Mike thought that she had overcharged him, but he had the money so he went ahead and paid it. “When can I move in?”
“Anytime. I’ll get you a key. Rent’s due on the first.” “Fine.”
He took his key and got out of there. She hadn’t asked him to sign a lease, so if he found something else he could move. Imagine! Ramirez had lost his life to people like Jenna West, and now he had to cope with them everyday. Why couldn’t they stay where they belonged?
