  Hiring a man wasn't something Tess Lonigan had ever done before. But in her
  fast-track career, business functions were simply easier with a partner at her
  side! Dating for real was complicated — far easier to employ a pretend fiance!
  
  Only when her appointed candidate reported to Tess's office to commence fiance
  duties, she had the distinct impression _he_ was controlling _her!_ Tess had
  no idea she was the secret victim of a matchmaking plot... nor that this
  gorgeous, mysterious man had plans for her himself!
