Book Description:

New York Times bestselling author Christina Dodd, one of the most acclaimed authors of historical romance, makes a dazzling foray into contemporary fiction in this intriguing and sensuous novel about a hard-working young woman who mistakenly falls in love with Boston's wealthiest bachelor.

JUST THE WAY YOU ARE

When Hope Prescott's parents disappeared, her carefree teenage life vanished forever. She and her three siblings were separated and sent to different foster homes around the country. Now, seven years later, Hope is still searching for them. To support herself, she works for an answering service, and cares for her clients as if they were family. When wealthy businessman Zachariah Givens hires Hope's service, Hope initially mistakes Zack for his butler. Tired of being coddled and ?attered because of his money, Zack is charmed by Hope's candor, not to mention her sexy voice, and keeps up the charade. As their friendship turns into passion, Zack is determined to have her, even if that means the unthinkable -- marriage. But when Hope discovers his deception, Zack knows he must solve the mystery that haunts Hope's past in order to convince her that their futures lie together....

The first in the "Prescott" family. Could'nt put it down. A great read. I'm reading the others right away. That takes care of the next two days! Then I'll have to find something else to read!

Book one in Dodd's "Prescott" series. Hope Prescott loses her parents to a car accident and her 3 siblings to the foster care system when she is just 16. Seven years later she is working hard to be in a position to find her brother and sisters. She meets Zack Givens, but she mistakes him for his butler Griswald. Good, quick read.
