by Robin Van Auken (Author)

Erin Andersen specializes in motivation. When Stephen Spence misses one too many deadlines, the publisher sends Erin to salvage the book. He blames writer's block, but Erin thinks he's narcissistic, lazy, and spending too much time partying at his beach house. When Spence sails to the Florida Keys for some undeserved R&R, Erin tags along as first mate to avoid losing the contract. After a week at sea, her disdain gives way to desire and she discovers sexy Stephen Spence can focus - when he wants to. Worse, she finds that distraction is contagious. Fun in the sun is fine, but Erin has a job to do. Her new plan is to isolate Spence at her family's farm in Eaton, where she grew up, and where she can control the situation on her terms. Or can she? Erin's reckless compromises prove costly as the six-figure book deal slips through her fingers. She must choose between her career and her foolish heart. Whatever she decides, she might lose both. WHEN LOVE SPEAKS CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE SERIES The first in a wonderful romance series, "Distracted" by Robin Van Auken, Author of Contemporary Fiction, Suspense Thriller and Romance, introduces readers to Eaton, a fictional, idyllic town tucked away in the mountains of Pennsylvania.
