I am a Jessica Steele fan, and I didn't think this lived up to her normal standards. Even though Neve slaps Darcy because she is hysterical, I really don't like men hitting women, and he bruises her shoulders a couple of times. He is cruel to her through most of the book. On the plus side, Darcy is a plucky opponent. I don't think this is worth a read, and it is certainly hard to find.

Darcy Alexander is a sweet young woman, she is caring for her elderly nurse, Ms Emsworth. And because of this she can't work a 9-5 job. The temp agency she works for belonging to Jane Dexter, sends her to deliever a package, Mr Littlejohn, But Darcy doesn't get to give the package to him. Neve Macalister is expecting a black mailer to deliever the pictures the black mailer has of Neve's sister. When Neve finds Darcy is the person delivering the package he doesn't believe she is as innocent as she appears. So he kidnaps Darcy. Neve hires Darcy after she excapes to find she really is a sweet loving woman, but she with give as good as she gets, Darcy can't risk her friends busniess by telling Neve what he can do with his job. But Ms Emmy is the ace in the hole, Neve uses her to get Darcy. It works and Neve tells Darcy everything. He also tells Darcy he loves her, and he wants Ms Emmy to make her home with them. This is one of my favorites, I also disagree with the choices for other writers, Susan Fox, Helen Brooks, the late great Betty Neels, and Rebecca Winters.
