Seduction and the CEO

Melissa Warner could become Windy City Bizz's newest feature writer. Yup, Melissa could get that coveted promotion. It was all hers for the taking; now all she needed was an interview with Chicago's number one business tycoon and its numero uno heartthrob -- Jared Ryder. Jared Ryder hated the public eye. He was a businessman, not a celebrity. His personal life was nobody's business but his own. But for some reason the news media insisted he was public property. Jared loathed their despicable tactics to take his picture; to shove microphones at him; to even camp out in his driveway! It was frustrating; it was sickening; and yet a bigger issue dogged Jared, at the moment . . . his little sister's well-being. And exactly who was the blond-haired, green-eyed beauty his sister had recently hired? Reviewer's Comments: Oh what fun! Barbara Dunlop's SEDUCTION AND THE CEO is a straight-up charmer! What a concept: a romance without fighting or the "big misunderstanding." Instead, Ms. Dunlop cooks up a vulnerable heroine, an alpha-male hero, and throws in a few delightful dashes of humor. Entertainment? You bet! Yes indeed, my kind of short storytelling! Grade: A (fun) Sensuality: warm MaryGrace Meloche.
