Olivia Chantry may keep her desk in disarray, but she's a dynamo when it
comes to business: her Seattle-based company, Light Fantastic,
organizes dazzling events that create the flash her clients need to
promote their products or their causes. Her marvelous success has almost
made up for a marriage that ended in disaster and left her wedded to a
career instead of a mate.
She certainly has enough on her well-sculpted shoulders when she
inherits a portion -- 49 percent, to be precise -- of Glow, Inc., her
uncle's high-tech lighting firm. But it's the interloper who bagged the
other 51 percent with whom Olivia has butted heads: Jasper Sloan, a
venture capitalist and dealmaker known as a man with all his ducks in a
row, and his neat, orderly life under control.
From the start of their feisty business dealings, the so-called partners
nearly crash and burn: they are suspicious of each other's motives.
They disagree about management style. They argue about Glow's policy of
employing members of the Chantry family, from Olivia's cousin Bolivar to
her Aunt Zara, the ex-soap star. But the snap, crackle and pop of their
sexual energy can not be denied. Now, their steamy joint venture is
headed unmistakably in one direction: trouble.
