Midwestern librarian Letitia Thornquist didn't have the right stuff to run Thornquist Gear, Inc. That was the bottom-line opinion of Joel Blackstone, the seasoned CEO who had built the small Seattle sporting goods store into an industry giant. But Letty's rich Uncle Charlie willed her the company, and now she was bubbling with enthusiasm to have Joel, a perfect mentor, show her the ropes. Teaching her the business was all Joel grudgingly planned to do...until the sensuous curves under Letty's navy suit and the unabashed desire in her wide, innocent eyes left him longing for a personal kind of merger. Soon his sizzling kisses convinced her that she wasn't in Kansas anymore. But no matter how skilled Joel was in the art of love, Letty knew she was at risk in his arms. Behind his tough facade she sensed a world of hurt that cried out for her warmth and understanding. She realized the "L" word might never be spoken if trust didn't make them perfect partners 9 to 5...and in the loving after-hours of midnight to dawn. In a witty, classical duel of romance and ambition, Jayne Ann Krentz deftly portrays two fiery opposites caught by an irresistible attraction...in a deliciously spicy tale of life at the top and love in the depths of the heart.

Pretending the important, life-altering decision to relate is “a matter of the heart” is not only stupid, it doesn't work! Many moons ago, psychotherapist Wayne C. Allen made a clear decision about his “next” relationship. He decided that his brain (not just his heart) needed to be in charge of the process. He came up with a strategy for finding the person he wanted -- He called it...The List of 50. His strategy worked. He met his perfect partner (in 2017, they've been together 34 years!) Wayne began sharing the process with his clients -- soon, they demanded a book... and Find Your Perfect Partner is the result. Written by a therapist with over 30 years of experience, this book gives you the tools you need to actually think through what kind of person you want to be with. His clients have tested this process for the last 30 years, and now it's available to you!

I'm being more particular now.” Find Your Perfect Partner is a guide to figuring out the whole attraction / dating / relationship thing. You'll discover: ~reasons for failed relationships and the high divorce rate ~how hormones get in the way ~how past relationships are great guides to getting the next one right ~why you need to think about what works in your successful friendships ~which traits must be a match between you and your perfect partner This book examines what doesn't work, then helps you to map out what's been missing from your past relationships.

"My list has been an active part of my relationship building since I drafted it. I have modified the list several times, based on how relationships worked out. It was also interesting to note, how few elements of my list my ex-wife matched, similar to what you said about your first marriage. I feel that using the process you recommend does improve the quality of the choices you make. Of course, building the other relating skills will complement this as well."
“What’s he doing back in London after all this time?” Eight years ago, Lisa Darby’s dancing partner and first love, Redmond Carrington, left London for a fun summer on the cruise ships – and never came back. Lisa’s grown up a bit since then, and she’d like to think she’s prepared for anything, but when Red comes back from America with a proposal for her, she’s not sure she’s ready for what he’s suggesting. A TV studio is filming a knockout competition of six of the world’s best couples – each of them partners both on and off the dance floor.
