Beschrijving uitgever
Madelyn Taggart has shattered her share of glass ceilings. As a young engineer at a Houston oil company, she's managed to make it in a mostly older, all-male, all-white industry. But her success has come at a high cost to her love life. So far this classic beauty has made zero headway in finding the man of her dreams…until she sees a photograph of one of her brother's friends, and is determined to meet him.
Daniel Falcon is a bit of a Lone Star legend. He's off-the-charts handsome and very, very rich. All the ladies entertain fantasies about being "the one"…and soon find out he's not the type to settle down. Then Daniel meets his friend Matt's little sister. This Madelyn clearly has eyes for him but there's something about her that makes Daniel take a closer look. She's clever beyond compare, and ambitious, and sexy as the day is long. Is she soul-mate material? For the first time Daniel can remember, he's going to take his time to find out—beginning with one slow, passionate embrace…
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A busy career as a production engineer for a Houston oil company has left Madelyn Taggart (her brother Kane was the hero of Forever Yours) with little time to socialize. Besides, the only man she's ever really wanted is the half African American, half Native American man she's seen in a photograph with her brother. But now the man in the picture, Daniel Falcon, head of the powerful Falcon Industries, is relocating to Houston. After a chance meeting and seduction, Madelyn finds herself pregnant by Daniel, who is desperate to avoid repeating the unhappy marriage his parents had. Daniel can be more than a bit self-righteous and when he finally condescends to marry Madelyn, she firmly declines--as sexy and rich as Daniel is, she'd rather face motherhood alone than in a loveless marriage. This is a well-written, tender story about a man's growing into respect and trust. It's about, as Ray writes, how "sharing the warmth and comfort of another's body be as addictive as sex."
