The only child of a wealthy couple, Olivia Chatham has her
namesake hometown wrapped around her little finger, and
rightfully so! Sweet, kind, and downright gracious, Livvy
has the knack for spreading joy by anonymously doing good
deeds to those less fortunate than herself. Of course,
everyone knows she's the one behind it all, but they'd
rather keep the secret than spoil her fun. According to
Olivia, everyone has the right to be happy. Too bad she
hasn't quite figured out how to heed her own advice.
Thrice-divorced and now living at home with her parents,
Olivia could use a little help in the love department to
say the least.
Tucker Monroe is somewhat of a drifter. With a
less than idyllic childhood, he is trying his best to
escape from his past as he embarks on what hopefully will
be a bright future. Unbeknownst to him, landing in
Chatham might just be the best thing that has ever
happened to him. What could be better than a town full of
friendly and outgoing people who seem to be more than
happy to welcome him into the fold? For once, Tucker
feels as if he finally belongs.
When a seemingly innocent invitation to a holiday
party lands him in none other than Olivia Chatham's
mansion, Tucker finds himself rather smitten with the
bubbly and unattached woman who definitely is the belle of
the ball. Too bad he's not her date! Luckily for him, the
lack of sparks between himself and his lady friend enables
him to cut the evening short as he leaves the party with
the quirky, but cute Olivia on his mind. As if the fates
are on his side, later on that night he comes across
Olivia broken-down by the side of the road and gets to
play the role of her knight in shining armor. Little does
she know that on the other side of town, his previous date
is now dead! Who is this new man in Chatham? And more
importantly, what does he really want with Olivia?
OBLIVIOUS is a charming and delightful novel that
humors and entertains the reader as the mystery
masterfully unfolds. The second book by Cyndia Depre, it
proves to be the perfect concoction of love, lust and
intrigue.
Eccentric Olivia Chatham has found her life's calling. Crime
buster. Tucker Monroe, the small Wisconsin town's mysterious
new resident, discovers he, too, has a mission. Keeping up
with her.
