Book Description:

Even a heaven-sent love can be hot as hell...

Sweet Fortune

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!"

While I never got the backstory on how Hatch became interested in Jessie, I did enjoy reading it. The story has a fairly suspenseful plot and some interesting secondary characters. Recommended.

From the back cover:

The free-spirited rebel of her powerful family, Jessie Benedict was determined not to marry her father's protege, Sam Hatchard. But no one was taking "NO!" for an answer: not Jessie's mother and stepmother, ex-wives affectinately known as "The Moms"...not her father, Vincent, whose two spectacularly failed marriages left him somewhat lacking as a matchmaker. And certainly not Hatchard, the infuriating match in question, a chip off Vincent's workaholic block, compellingly masculine and an entrepreneur extraordinaire. Jessie couldn't deny that Hatch was hot, all right--hot for the empire he planned to build using her inheritance!
