Love is a hard game to play, especially when entrepreneurial success is the primary driving force in one’s life. Dakota Carson is one of those people who has been burned before by love, but she does not let it get her down. Instead, she focuses her efforts on improving her image specialist company’s reputation and status. When an opportunity to work directly with the highly successful Belle Cove Resorts is presented to her, it seems like a chance she could never refuse. The problem for Dakota is that the CEO of the resort is Logan Montague, a successful businessman in his own right and the one who broke Dakota’s heart when he dropped everything in his personal life to excel professionally in his family’s business. Both Dakota and Logan are determined to make this professional opportunity mutually beneficial, but Logan is taking this second chance at love very seriously, and he has his matchmaking aunt on his side. Can he find a way to regain Dakota’s trust and win back her heart? Will it be business or pleasure—or both—in Love by Design? This piece is the latest installment of the Harlequin Kimani Romance/The Match Broke series and the most recent title from author Lisa Watson. Watson, in addition to being a great romance author who writes memorable, realistic, and charming characters, is co-publicist for the RT BookReview Magazine’s annual RT Booklovers Convention and host of Reader’s Entertainment Radio show. The book does a great job of exploring what happens when second chances come our way, as if by design (hence the title). Turn up the heat this season with Love by Design, out now in paperback and digital formats.
