Romance

Heiress Ivy Smithson is determined to keep her flaky sister from making the worst mistake of her life: marrying the wrong man. Clearly, the guy is just after the family's money.To stop her, Ivy teams up with her father's gorgeous, wisecracking, and supremely difficult security consultant, ex-cop Joe Dunham. Ivy's way too uptight to be his style, but she's had his attention from the first -- maybe because Joe always pays attention where women are concerned.

Bickering all the way, off they go on a mission to Vegas to track down Ivy's sister and stop the wedding.When Ivy and Joe anger the wrong people, their lives get dangerous, but guns and gangsters aren't the only threat they face.

Ivy knows Joe isn't her type, so why does falling for the wrong guy feel very, very right?
