She’s all work and no play. He’s an expert at fun. Their romance could be the biggest game of all.
Paul Monroe thinks the best way to a woman’s heart is through her funny bone. But not everyone in his antique toy business appreciates his playful attitude. After his assistant resigns, he hopes a talent agency can find the perfect replacement. But when he meets the agency’s beautiful straight-laced boss, he makes it his personal mission to flip her frown upside down.
Bette Wharton can’t afford to lose a client. So when she notices the high turnover rate for assistants sent to a local toy shop, she rolls up her suit sleeves to get to the heart of the problem. But the no-nonsense businesswoman may have finally met her match when she squares off against Paul’s office shenanigans. Working side-by-side, Bette starts to let her hair down… and let love in.
With both businesses on the line, can Paul and Bette learn to fuse their leadership styles and their hearts?
Prelude to a Wedding is the first book in a charming contemporary romantic comedy series. If you like quirky characters, magnetic chemistry and light-hearted antics, then you’ll love Patricia McLinn’s irresistible love story.
