Cassi works for an art gallery and is headed to an auction to acquire a really ugly Buddha statue for her boss. Her boss really wants this statue and his instructions strike Cassi as suspicious. While she is preparing for the auction, she runs into Jared and isn't really looking her best.
Jared also works at a gallery and is under similar instructions from his boss, except that he is to acquire the statue no matter what it takes. He is captivated by Cassi, wondering if she is more than what she appears.
A mysterious note before the auction makes Cassi believe that Jared may be using scare tactics to keep people, especially her, from bidding on the statue. When it comes up for sale, Cassi has to leave during the bidding to help her friend. While Jared wins the statue, his problems are just beginning.
Hiding out from people that seem intent on getting the statue for themselves, Jared and Cassi team up to find out what could possibly be that important about it. Working together shows them both something they have been missing. Love.
I thought that this was a nice little book. It was entertaining and a quick read for me. There are more in this series. Apparently, their happily ever after hasn't really happened yet, but I'm not planning on following the series. Maybe because it's a contemporary romance, I just can't say for sure. I'm a historical girl at heart and it takes a lot to get me interested in contemporary. There are only a few authors that have gotten my devotion over the years. It was a good book, but there just wasn't anything in there that caused me to want to continue the story past this point. Good Book!
