Charity Truitt was practicing her breathing and fighting yet
another panic attack that made it increasingly clear she was not
going to complete the corporate merger between the Truitt
department store chain and Loftus Athletic Gear. She was not going
to marry Brett Loftus either...Notorious deal maker Elias Winters
had changed gears and settled in Whispering Waters Cove. He'd been
studying martial arts and Asian philosophy with one burning goal in
mind - only to discover that he'd been swept into unknown emotional
seas... Facing crises of career and heart, two of the most powerful
corporate figures in the Northwest are now borne by the
unpredictable currents of fate to the same small Washington town,
and to their respective shops - a bookstore for Charity and a small
curiosity shop called Charms and Virtues for Elias. When they meet,
the attraction is immediate. But the results may be...murder! Land
speculation is booming in the town - and no one, especially Charity
Truitt, believes that Elias Winters has suddenly stopped
outswimming the corporate sharks just to run a small business. As
Charity and Elias begin a cautious exploration of each other's
pasts, hidden agendas, and libidos, they discover one thing they
definitely have in common. A martial arts master, he's a novice at
relationships; a formidable executive, she's starting in the mail
room when it comes to love. And all around them, Sixties-style
rebels are clashing with BMW-driving professionals. Then, after two
shocking murders, Charity and Elias really join forces to catch a
killer - and become next in line for an early demise.
