Angela Meadows loved her hair-brained, interfering mother, but this time she'd gone too far!

When her mother publicly announced that her latest prophetic dream fated Tarrant Seaton, prominent playboy, to be Angela's husband, the timing couldn't be more tragic. Angela had just been hired by Delila Seaton to remodel parts of the Seaton mansion as well as the family owned chocolate factory. Though humiliated, Angela would not be driven to quit. Working for the beloved matriarch of Seatonville, Kansas, would help her fledgling business finally get into the black and give her the boost in confidence she so badly needed.

To Tarrant, Angela Meadows was just another conniving gold digger, no matter how wide eyed, innocent, and alluring she seemed. He had to credit her with smarts, after all. She'd sweet-talked his trusting mother into hiring her—and now he'd be tripping over her at home and at work! Well played, little Miss Wolf-in-Sheep's-Clothing!

Make no mistake, Tarrant Seaton was no babe in the woods when it came to crafty, mercenary females! Even if there was something strangely captivating about this particular female...

Now—it was his move.
