"The quickest way to love isn t always a straight line. "
This was supposed to be Xavier Moreau s long-awaited vacation. A few precious weeks away from his over-scheduled career to see the America his mother loved and still make it to his best friend s wedding in time. Instead, he s ferrying the bridezilla s sister to the nuptials. The luscious Jaime Cruz makes his mouth water, but her near-frenzy to get to Oregon "now" would scrape on his last nerve if he didn t sense that she needs the break as much as he does.
Fresh off a teaching assignment in D.C., Jaime s white-knuckling it. She s got only three weeks to get home, find a job and a place to live, and ensure her sister s big day comes off without a hitch. Except Xavier tosses her three-days-or-bust itinerary out the window. Even more annoying, Jaime finds herself succumbing to his relentless determination to make sure she enjoys every minute of the trip. And falling under the spell of his sizzling touch.
Three weeks and three thousand miles later, Jaime s feet are on home ground, but her heart is pulling her in a completely unexpected direction. Toward Xavier and a new journey that will require the ultimate leap of faith.
Warning: Caution! Dangerous curves ahead. Do not enter if you might be spooked by haunted hotels, embarrassed by sex in the great outdoors, or fear you might yield to a devastating Frenchman willing to drive you to distraction. "
