Book Synopsis

She Wants What He's Got...

Valerie Parker is desperate to win the affection of her emotionally distant father and land a promotion at his advertising firm. Her biggest obstacle is junior partner Steven Crennell, a dazzling former NBA star who scores all the big accounts. But Valerie's attempt to outshine her charismatic rival unexpectedly leads her straight into his arms...

And She's Everything He Needs...

Steven hopes to dispel the playboy stereotype left in the wake of his NBA career. Between battling his ex-fiancée and focusing on his work, finding his soul mate isn't on the agenda...until he meets his match in Valerie. And when competition leads to explosive passion, he learns that the game of life-and love-involve a very different set of rules...

"A stellar read!" -Coffee Time Romance on You Belong To Me

"Sensational and engrossing." -Romantic Times on On Fire

Publishers Weekly

Charismatic former NBA star Steven Crennell joins a Miami ad agency and finds himself facing off against the owner’s determined daughter in this sexy contemporary romance. Valerie Parker resents having to compete with newcomer Steve for accounts, especially when her father, Garry, gives Steve a client that Valerie brought in. The rivalry heats up as Garry continues to value Steve’s household name status over Valerie’s hard work. Valerie can’t deny her attraction to Steve, but how can she trust him when he won’t take tough stands against predatory women (including his gold-digging ex-fiancée) or Garry’s unfairness? As Valerie and Steve slowly discover their own moral and emotional strengths, Sargeant (You Belong to Me) turns this slightly Freudian tangle into an absorbing if lightweight emotional journey with broad appeal.
