Back cover reads:
LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
Tess Baron knew she was in trouble the second she laid eyes on the mysterious--and oh-so-sexy--stranger. Why had Nick Trejo suddenly appeared, asking her for a private meeting? And what was it about Nick that made Tess long to be in his arms...?
Nick was on a quest to discover his family's fortune, and he wasn't going to let some beautiful heiress stand in the way--even if he was falling in love with her. Or could the treasure he'd been searching for his entire life be less precious than the treasure he'd just found--Tess's love?

Tess Baron at first seems like an uptight business woman with no feelings for anyone other than herself. But in this story, as in life, not everything is as it seems. Nick Trejo suddenly appears and nothing is the same for Tess again. Tess has never known love in her life, so for her life is about her work and the family business. Tess is drilling for oil that could bring in millions of dollars, but at the same time she may cost Nick his family's fortune and his grandfathers dream. At first, Tess is unimpressed with Nick and his plea for her to stop drilling, but she soon learns Nick will pull out all the stops to convince her to do the right thing. Nick is unaware of the price that Tess will have to pay in order to help him. Even though Nick and Tess seem to be at a impass they are still deeply attracted to each other. Nick and Tess give us a story of love, courage, faith, and any other emotion that you can think of. This is a great start to the series.
