"Filled with sexual tension and uncertainty, this story is also amusing."

Emily Winters had to work extra hard to become VP of Global Sales for Wintersoft, even though her father is CEO. Due to a bad divorce from Wintersoft's golden boy and the fact that her father wanted a son, Emily is always trying to prove her worth.

Jack Devon, VP of Business Development and Strategy for Wintersoft, is in a job he loves. Fearing he could lose it if anyone finds out about his father's gambling problem, he always keeps his past under very tight wraps.

The opportunity to go to Reno to show off their product at a conference excites Emily and Jack, until her father informs them they'll be staying at the Tahoe family home. Being in such close proximity for a week is going to be impossible, especially when they're so attracted to each other. As they spend time together, they discover their deepest, darkest secrets, and an affair begins.

When they return home, they resume their old lives. Each wants to approach the other to declare their love, but they fear rejection. A week later, at a dinner party, they can't stay quiet any longer.

What a perfect ending to Marrying the Boss's Daughter series. This story is filled with sexual tension and uncertainty. The misconception the characters have of each other is quite amusing.

Summary

Emily Winters wants nothing to do with marriage. After her failed marriage to Todd Baxter, the wanna-be golden boy at her father's company, she's through with romance. Especially to anyone having anything to do with Wintersoft. Unfortunately, her father has other ideas, and she's been compelled to find girlfriends (or wives!) for the single executives at the company, since her father can't seem to get a clue. When there's only one bachelor left, Emily figures she's safe. After all, Jack Devon, who's been named one of Boston Magazine's 50 Hottest Bachelors, goes for a very different kind of woman. Until Jack and Emily are sent to Reno on a business trip, and discover that love is sometimes worth a gamble....
