      “Why?”

      Garrett crossed his arms. “Why did you only want one date?”

      Olivia shut her eyes. This was so horrible. She’d ruined everything. How could she ever have thought a one-night stand was a good idea? Bad girls had bad ideas.

      “The truth,” he demanded.

      Her eyes flew open. “I…”

      “Did you plan to seduce me?” The question hit like a harsh accusation.

      “It seemed the answer to my problem.”

      “You mean the virginal Olivia Jacobsen problem?”

      It was out there now, what she’d done, and it rang tawdry and crass. Which was exactly how Garrett took it. What could she say? How could she make this better?

      The silence stretched. Finally he spoke, each word like a knife.

      “Tell me, Olivia. Be honest just this once. How much of you is real—and how much is a lie?”

      Dear Reader,

      I am delighted to finally bring you Olivia Jacobsen’s story and finish the Jacobsen family saga that I started what seems aeons ago. For Olivia, being a “bad girl” is about as far out of character as this minister’s daughter can get. However, she’s not going to turn thirty-one without a fight, and she plans to liven up her boring life and have some fun, if only for one night. When sexy cop Garrett Krause kisses her breath away, however, she discovers that one night isn’t enough, and she wonders if she can turn one night into forever. But there’s this little matter of some lies she’s told that could ruin everything.

      If you’ve ever dreamed of being someone else or pretended to be, if only for a moment, you’ll empathize with Olivia Jacobsen as she struggles to find true love. With some well-meaning meddling from Grandpa Joe, I can promise you the family saga comes to an exciting and satisfying conclusion.

      It’s hard to say goodbye to these characters, and I hope you enjoy their story as much as I did creating it. The road to love is often paved with good intentions, but sometimes, as Olivia will find out, you simply need a little faith.

      As always, enjoy the romance, and feel free to e-mail me at [email protected] with any feedback.

      P.S. Jacobsen characters are also found in Catching the Corporate Playboy (Darci), The Playboy’s Protegee (Harry), and About Last Night…(Shane).
