About this listen

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 protege, 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!"

Although published by Audible in 2018, this story was initially published in 1991 - and it shows. Lots of references to diskettes, faxes and modems, and no one has a mobile phone. Also, there are very irritating patriarchal attitudes throughout, usually unchallenged. That detracted from my enjoyment, even though I usually like an alpha male romance! Well narrated, however.

Quite dated story but well narrated

The narration really brought the story to life. Well worth a listen if you enjoy the author’s books.

Well performed

The story was interesting, Hatch the male lead was simply perfect , and all the characters were easily lovable. However, I struggled to get through it. I listened half way, read some other books then came back to finish it.
if you like a slow burner, this is the book for you.
