Annotation
Elaine Johnson has one plan: Don't get fired. Losing her job means returning to the town where her wicked aunt would work her to death. She is forced to propose a book deal to the billionaire family, the Swernbachs, and an accidental run in with their second son, Andrew, who acts as CEO of the families corporation, puts her in the direct part of Melvin, his older brother, who desperately wants a relationship with her. He could be her secret to success if Andrew wasn't in the way of both her heart and her job. Will she be able to fight her attraction to Andrew and deliver on the job? Andrew Swernbach knows something fishy going on between his brother and Elaine Johnson. His sworn duty is to protect the family's wealth and that includes keeping gold diggers away from reckless Melvin. Elaine Johnson is trouble and not just because she has caught his brother's eyes with her luscious lips and secret fiery temper. So, he sets his target on keeping them apart. Sure that he will succeed because he never ever misses a target. No matter how attractive she appears. Melvin Swernbach's only hope at inheriting anything from his grandfather is finding a bride before the man's 70th birthday. Life seems to smile on him when he comes in contact with Elaine Johnson, a woman he is sure that his grandparents will love. He is determined to wed her because his inheritance and a chance with the love of his life rests on the success of his marriage. And he is willing to do anything to reach his goal.

An easy, light read that is perfect for a lazy afternoon. The characters are pleasant and the tension is gentle, making you want to follow their journey. However, the plot develops quite slowly, so Iām unsure how long my interest will truly hold. I am curious to see how their relationships ultimately unfold and resolve, but the leisurely pace may cause some readers to linger less than others. It's a relaxing read for when you are not seeking any high drama.
