I enjoyed this second of the series of the Eclipse Bay books, but it was not her best work. But, all in all a good read.
Great trilogy!
Second in the trilogy, good book.
Setting: Eclipse Bay, Oregon, present day
Sensuality rating: 5
New York Times bestselling author Jayne Ann Krentz returns readers to this sleepy coastal town in her eagerly anticipated sequel to Eclipse Bay. The Harte-Madison feud hasn't been totally laid to rest yet, not when matchmaker Lillian Harte takes on successful CEO Gabe Madison as a client. Gabe's arranged blind dates have all ended disastrously, but he insists that Lillian make good on his contract for a sixth and final rendezvous, even if she has to go herself. But anytime a Madison and a Harte get near each other, the chemistry is explosive. Add in quirky alien conspiracy theorists and a soupçon of sexual deviance in the form of dominance and bondage--not to mention tongue-in-cheek humor and captivating sensuality--and you've got another unforgettable read from perennial favorite Krentz. --Alison Trinkle
This book is very well written with believable and developed characters. The trilogy is a must read page turner.

Lillian is a professional matchmaker. Gabe is a CEO. He enlists for her to find him a match. After 5 tries, she ends up dating him herself to see why he can't get along with anyone else. Then sparks start flying. Never know what will happen next.
2nd book. Follows Eclispe Bay. Gabe and Lillian's story.
I liked this book, wasn't as intense as the first book in the trilogy but the dialogue was good none-the-less. The only problem I hated was Gabe's so-called reason fro marrying Lillian was repeated on almost every single page of the damn book! so damn annoying!
Second in the trilogy.
