Devotion to the woman who treated them as a mother motivates three handsome bachelors to find wives quickly in Eileen Wilk's Tall, Dark, & Eligible miniseries. Ada's experimental treatment is exorbitantly expensive, but they'll do anything to prolong her life. To pay for her treatment, they must fulfill the rules of their trust. Jacob West, nicknamed the Iceman, promises to be the first brother to marry. Now he just has to find a bride. Too bad the first woman he asks turns him down. But his new assistant is promising. Claire McGuire, the woman rumored to have driven Ken Lawrence mad, accepts the temporary position as Jacob's assistant. Maybe the mansion's outstanding security system will keep her safe. Memories of the scandal, the gossip, and the trial haunt her. But knowing events could repeat themselves keeps her ever vigilant. She finds her boss to be a highhanded, irritatingly sexy man, and now she can't help wondering just how much danger she's living with as well. The debut of Tall, Dark, & Eligible miniseries JACOB'S PROPOSAL demonstrates author Eileen Wilks' remarkable skill. With a deft touch she combines romance and danger, forcing her characters to reevaluate their priorities and the their feelings. Sensuality plays a strong role, entangling these characters in memorable play of emotions. Very highly recommended.
Fabulous!

Eileen Wilks gives us another page turner in Jacob's Proposal. Once again Wilks has gifted us with a big book in a short format. Jacob is used to winning in the boardroom, and when one prospective bride turns him down, he sets his sights with ruthless intent on prospect number two. But Claire doesn't want to get married, she just needs a safe place to live... temporarily. Sparks fly and the heat index rises as Jacob pursues Claire with the same intensity and focus of purpose he uses in business.I can't wait to see what's in store for Luke and Michael!
Outstanding!

Wow! Eileen Wilks has done it again. Her latest book, Jacob's Proposal, one of a fabulous new series, Tall, Dark and Eligible, is awesome.It's a terrific read and great escape. Jacob West is a hero to die for, strong, masculine, determined to get what he wants, but with a softer side that melted my heart. Claire McGuire is warm, likeable and multi-dimensional.This book is a rare treat. Thanks, Ms. Wilks, I look forward to many more of your books-and especially more in this series!
