Summary:
"Hayley Lancaster hoped to make an impression in her first job as a company librarian at downtown Pittsburgh firm Mansfield, Inc. But she's just unknowingly insulted her new boss. Maybe the floor could open up and swallow her whole. After that encounter, the last thing she expects is more responsibility. But David Mansfield is impressed and soon, the time they spend together is sheer delight& until it becomes sheer torture. As a successful businessman in the competitive contracting world, David has experienced betrayal from both his best friend and corporate espionage. Trust doesn't come easily. But there's something about that new librarian. Hayley's bright, a natural at proposal writing, and looks especially pretty when she's flying kites. If only she didn't work for him. If only she wasn't dating his major competitor. If only he could trust her. When Hayley is rebuffed by a suddenly cool and aloof David, ​his secretary implies that falling for the boss is a regular occurrence at Mansfield, Inc. But Hayley knows she's different. Why won't David admit it? He obviously has problems with the "T" word, and Hayley's relationship with David's best friend turned arch rival, isn't helping. When David accuses her of being a corporate spy, Hayley is devastated. She expects to lose her job--she just wishes she hadn't lost her heart." -- Amazon.com
