Description
Zoe's a security specialist and a Costas through and through. Her eccentric, rather dubious family runs an Atlantic City spa that's just this side of legit. So Zoe isn't fooled by the charm or good looks of this Ryan Baldwin when he shows up claiming to be related to Sam, the little girl the Costas family is about to adopt.
But Ryan is Sam's uncle and one of the rich, upright - and uptight - Boston Baldwins. Ryan's search for his sister Faith, the family's black sheep, has led him to news of her death, and to a niece he's never met. But someone else has also tracked Sam down - someone who never wanted the child to be found.
Ryan is determined to protect Sam and find out what really happened to his sister. And Zoe "Whatever-It-Takes" Costas is just the woman to help him do it...
Zoe is a security specialist and a member of the eccentric Costas family, which is fostering a child named Sam and hoping to adopt her. Enter Ryan Baldwin, Sam's rich uncle, who has been searching for her. He falls head over heels in love with distrusting Zoe and prickly Sam. When someone attempts to harm Sam, the action revs up and romance flourishes. Bernadette Quigley reads with an upbeat tone and happy-go-lucky charm. When Phillips puts the upper-crust Baldwins face to face with the freewheeling Costas, Quigley creates her characterizations with vocal stereotypes that make the listener smile at the unlikelihood of the story.
