Everyone thought Jessie Benedict's impending marriage to Sam Hatchard was a great arrangement—everyone, that is, but Jessie herself. Was she the only one who could see that Hatchard, her powerful father's protégé, had a scheming ulterior motive in marrying her? He was more than just a chip off the old workaholic's block—he was positively lusting after Jessie's inheritance to build his own business empire!
Free-spirited Jessie has plans for her own career as a detective—starting with the rescue of a teenage girl from a dangerous cult. But when a break-in and an intimidating act of vandalism strike close to home, her investigation pairs her with the compellingly masculine entrepreneur. Hatch does make her heart beat deliciously fast, but she's not taking orders from any man. Imagine her surprise when he turns out to be not only a friend and ally, but a strong, tender lover who, in the end, knows how to seal a deal—with her resounding "I do!"

      September 30, 1991
      The mystery surrounding an unsavory cult leader enlivens Krentz's ( Silver Linings ) latest contemporary romance. When psychic Irene Valentine is temporarily put out of commission by a fall down some stairs, her employee Jessie Benedict gleefully takes over the helm at Seattle's Valentine Consultations. After all, her new position means that Jessie will be too busy to spend time with Sam Hatchard, CEO of her father's company and Vincent Benedict's first choice for son-in-law. Fighting an attraction to ``Hatch,'' Jessie emphatically refuses to marry an even worse workaholic than her father. But Hatch sticks with her, especially when she takes on a potentially dangerous case: Martha Attwood hires Jessie to discredit the leader of a radical environmentalist cult that lured her daughter away from college. Jessie knows she's onto something after a break-in at Valentine Consultations and an attempt to vandalize Hatch's prized Mercedes. As the investigation heats up, Jessie becomes less certain that Hatch is the humorless, one-dimensional businessman she so loves to hate.
