co-workers

Back Cover:

Sean O'Reilly had become so close to his colleague and friend Maggie Sullivan that he was beginning to imagine their friendship could lead to more. Only now, bizarrely, she's backed off—and, even more strangely, she's started looking for love on the Internet! Well, if he can't beat them, he'll have to join them….

Maggie can't let herself get close to Sean. Not now. Not when she's discovered something that will break all his dreams of happy-ever-after. But she has no idea how much she has hurt Sean—nor how much she has just fueled his determination to make her his…by any means necessary!        

Spoiler Warning: All my reviews contain spoilers to some degree  

Favourite Scene: (sexual tension builds here, he teases her with questions about what she'd "mind" happening if it were THEM kissing goodnight)  

"Would you mind if I kissed you Maggie?"
Her eyes shot up to meet his.
"Would you mind if I undressed you a little, Maggie?"
She swallowed hard.
"Would you mind if I took you to bed, Maggie?"  He blinked down at her, his dark eyes getting darker.  "Or maybe you wouldn't mind if we just made love right here, Maggie?" 
"Stop it."  The words just tumbled out on a shaky breath.     

A rerelease of one of Vicki Lewis Thompson's early books.  Maybe a Temptation?  This was in the Bonus Bucks catalog with two other books.

Back Cover:

'I have no intention of selling.'

Mike had made her position perfectly clear. She could not abandon her share of Kingston Air, the business her grandfather had built. And especially not to a cold, calculating business machine like Luke Duncan.

She was uneasily aware that Luke was not a man who liked to be thwarted. It was obvious that he wouldn't have left even a minor investment to a girl he regarded as barely competent.

Perhaps it was time, Mike decided, that Luke learned there was no such thing as an unequal partnership!  

Okay story, I liked the animosity between the two leads which they overcome. Only complaint is unrealistic work environment, but all in all a fun read. Book six.
