ISBN: 0312940491

As they say -- where there's smoke, there's a fire - and the flame that burns between Skye Barclay and Slade Madaris in this new sizzling novel is, well a SLOW BURN!
ONCE YOU FIND
Everything in attorney Skye Barclay's life is coming together smoothly until she makes the startling discovery that she is adopted! Not only does she learn about her birth mother's death, she also learns that she has a brother, Vincent, she knew nothing about. Skye is on a mission to locate her brother even though her adoptive parents and fiancé, Wayne, doesn't think it is a good idea. In fact, Wayne goes even further by abruptly ending their engagement.
A LOVE THAT'S TRUE
Skye's search for Vincent leads her to his adoptive parents, Dr. Justin and Lorren Madaris, and Slade Madaris, Vincent's tall, dark, and very sexy cousin. Slade is by far the most compelling man Skye has ever met. But she's not ready to get involved in another relationship so soon after Wayne's rejection -- not even when Slade offers her a job so she can stick around and get to know her brother better.
MAKE IT LAST FOREVER
Slade is a shrewd businessman, but hiring Skye is one of the riskiest moves he's ever made. Soon their mutual attraction for each other explodes into a steamy summer affair. When Wayne shows up in town determined to win Skye back, Slade sets out to prove that he and Skye are meant to be together. A Madaris man never walks away from a challenge-especially when true love is on the line
