She’d been in love with the man since her first day on the job. And that love had grown deeper the longer she worked for him. But the man was obsessed with another woman, the lovely Delilah Jamison, singer extraordinaire, international jet setter. Rebecca was just the assistant. The assistant with a secret. A secret love for her boss and a secret music passion that her boss could never know about. From the moment he’d spotted her behind the receptionist’s desk, Marcus Benton had thought she was the sexiest, cutest and most interesting woman he’d ever met. He couldn’t get her out of his mind and, as she worked her way up in his company, he wanted her more and more. Working alongside her, he was determined to get to know the adorable Becca who buttoned her shirts up and wore prim clothes. He was dying to know what was beneath those conservative cardigans – and he wanted to know what else she was hiding behind those beautiful, amber eyes. When Rebecca’s secret comes out, could she trust Marcus with her secret? Could she handle the repercussions?

She could sing like a hummingbird, had numerous platinum albums to her credit. But Lila Jamison, a.k.a. Delilah James, had no life. She went from concert to recording studio, working until she literally passed out. Fresh air, sleep and relaxation were the doctor’s orders. That’s how Lila found herself standing on her one hundred acre ranch with nothing but fresh air and pancakes to soothe her tired soul. Unfortunately, her ranch came with the hottest, orneriest, sexiest neighbor who had a horrible habit of stealing her pancakes. But was he the enemy? Was Jake really a reporter in disguise, ready to tell the world how sad and pathetic she was in real life? Someone was trying to kill Jake and was willing to hurt innocent bystanders to achieve that goal. So he headed out of the cities and to his ranch in Montana where he could spot a stranger from miles away. So what was he to do about the beautiful red-head that came to town the day after his arrival? Surely this couldn’t be his assassin, he thought. She didn’t even know how to eat pancakes properly! So what was the mission she was here to accomplish? Who was this mystery woman who couldn’t lie to save her soul but adopted every pathetic creature who limped onto her ranch?

Kara James was not “that” kind of woman. And if Hunter West thought he could simply kiss her senseless and get her into bed, well…She wasn’t going to be his one night stand. So why was he back in her life? And why was he demanding to purchase the most beautiful, perfect lake house she’d ever seen? And why did he keep kissing her as if she was the only woman in the world that mattered? Hunter West had lost the beautiful, voluptuous red-head six months ago. But no matter how many women he dated, none could get the fiery woman out of his mind. So he was going to get her back. And he was going to figure out why she kept running away from him! One way or another, the lovely Kara James was going to be his! The mysterious woman with all of her secrets was going to reveal all to him.
