Synopsis

Charlotte Arkendale knew all there was to know about men. After all, she’d made a career out of steering marriage-minded women away from untrustworthy members of the opposite sex. Yet nothing could have prepared her for Baxter St. Ives—an arresting stranger too daring, too determined, too dangerous to be her new man-of-affairs. Still, perhaps he was the perfect person to help Charlotte investigate the recent murder of one of her clients. So she gave him a chance, never realizing that Baxter, a gifted scientist, would soon conduct a risky exploration into the alchemy of desire, with Charlotte as his subject. But even as he sets out to seduce Charlotte, a twisted killer lies in wait, ready to part the lovers … or see them joined together forever—in death. “Skillful, lively storytelling, with a heroine who’d be compelling in any era.”—Kirkus Reviews

Goodreads review by Daniella on July 02, 2015

My feelings for Ms. Amanda Quick's Affair hovered dangerously close to dislike at certain points in the story, but somehow, something--my loyalty to the author, perhaps?--kept me from actually going to that "I-Could-Care-Less-About-This-Awful-Book" zone. There were so many things wrong with the stor......more

Goodreads review by Pamela on May 25, 2021

This is my favorite of all Jayne Ann Krentz's (aka Amanda Quick) books. Once again she has written a compelling female lead, but in this case, I find the hero - a geeky scientist! - equally fascinating! Charlotte Arkendale is strong, intelligent and resourceful. She invented a career to support herse......more

Goodreads review by Debby *BabyDee* on March 31, 2022

I've read some of the other books by the author and thought they were very good, however with this one, I thought the characters were likeable. I did not get a feel for this book as the last that I've read and thought it could have been a bit better although enjoyable. Not sure if I chalked it up to......more

Goodreads review by Szaiak on February 01, 2023

* Afacerea Charlotte rămâne și orfană de mamă, având-o în grijă și pe surioara sa. Tatăl vitreg care ar fi trebuit să le ocrotească nu face altceva decât să le toace moștenirile și când ajunge la fundul sacului apelează la decizii groaznice, dovedind lipsa de morală ce-l caracterizează. Cu o stăpânir......more

I saw this book was on discount and since I adore Amanda Quick and my last reads have been a disappointment, I didn't even hesitate. This review is biased. I can never not like one of her books. Our Hero, world's best potato pudding Baxter is a bastard. He never magically unbecomes one and I loved that......more
