…because she’s more than a catch
A computer geek hooks up with a sexy biologist for business and pleasure, but he’ll need the right bait to reel in his perfect catch.
Bachelor Russ Novotny is starting over—new location, new IT venture, new sports car to replace the staid sedan his girlfriend took when she left him. A swap of his computer expertise for fish to stock his lake lands him in a different kind of hookup, one that does wonders for his wounded ego.
Divorcee Lee Anne Terrell is happy to indulge in a no-strings affair with her handsome computer geek while she gets to know her newfound half-sisters and opens Reel Time Bait and Stock. Unfortunately, her biology degrees didn’t prepare her for the unexpected evolution of hot-and-heavy sexual attraction into heart-stopping love.
But an ocean stands between them when they share their true feelings. He won’t settle for less than marriage and she’s vowed never to marry again. The most important catch of his life may prove impossible to reel in, even when she’s already taken the bait.
When her fingers aren't attached to her keyboard, Mellanie Szereto enjoys hiking, Pilates, cooking, gardening, and researching for her stories. Many times, the research partners with her other hobbies, taking her from the Hocking Hills region in Ohio to the Colorado Rockies and the Adirondacks of New York. Sometimes, the trip is no farther than her garden for ingredients and her kitchen to test recipes for her latest steamy tale. Mellanie makes her home in rural Indiana with her husband of thirty-two years and their son. She is a 2016 recipient of the RWA Service Award, RWA Chapter Advisor, and a member of Romance Writers of America, Indiana Romance Writers of America, Contemporary Romance Writers, and FF&P Romance Writers.
