Dressing on the Side

Sometimes undressed is better...A restaurant owner with a knack for creative salad dressings discovers undressed can be better, especially with a businessman who knows his way around the bedroom.The creative dressings Sahara Whitney serves at The Oasis Diner and her long line of failed relationships are her local claim to fame. Such is the small-town life of a buxom, blue-eyed blonde—until a sexy businessman decides she needs rescuing from a creep with wandering hands. Her usual common sense deserts her in favor of a delicious assortment of bedtime treats with a man who seems to want more than a single night of dessert.Trace Dennison doesn't believe in coincidences. Instant sexual attraction, a common business interest, and an oopsie baby convince him he's found the woman of his wildest dreams in Sahara Whitney, even if she has lingering doubts. A self-inflicted shotgun wedding offers the perfect recipe for happily-ever-after, but the honeymoon ends before it begins when Sahara suspects an ulterior motive—that their trail of clothing to the bedroom leads to Russian spies, a French revolution, and Caesar's assassination.2019 Stiletto Contest finalist
