The minute Tess
Phillips crossed the finish line in the Chicago Marathon,
her life began to change. As the female winner in this
year’s race, she was handed a check for fifty thousand
dollars! The money would keep her fledgling recycling
business afloat for awhile, but there was one catch. If she
wanted to keep the money, she has to let a local
sportswriter shadow her for an entire week.
Although Tess
didn’t mind sharing her training tips, she couldn’t afford
to have a reporter prying into her personal life. Especially
a reporter like Nick Bartholomew. With his mocking grin, his
aggressive style, and his intense blue eyes, Nick wouldn’t
let one detail slip by. Once Nick started nosing around,
Tess’s business problems were sure to leak out. She had to
avoid him – even if he was the most attractive man she’d
ever met.
From the start,
Nick Bartholomew was not pleased with this assignment. He
was sure that Tess Philips was a complete fraud. No one
could win a marathon on their first try. But one look as
Tess’s clear blue eyes made Nick doubt his reporter’s
instincts. They weren’t the eyes of a hustler. They were too
trusting, too vulnerable. If a man stared into Tess
Phillips’ eyes long enough, he could begin to believe in all
sorts of fairy tales. Before he lost his objectivity, Nick
had to cut to the chase. It was time to uncover Tess’s
secret – and he was the best man for the job.
