Dulcy Menendez has enough problems dealing with her stepmother and two stepsisters. She doesn’t need her sexy new boss, Ethan MacMillan, watching her every move. Especially since every time she catches his gray eyes studying her, her pulse races and her mind conjures up images of the two of them naked.

Security expert Ethan has taken over his uncle’s company to ferret out an embezzler, and he’s sure Dulcy has something to do with it. He decides, against his better judgment, to seduce the secrets out of her, planning on stopping short of taking her to bed. One limo ride later, and a very determined Dulcy, causes Ethan to decide between work and love.

When the sun rises, the truth is revealed, leaving them with one question: What do both of them do when they find themselves in love with a person they can’t trust?

This book is a reissue and has been edited for content.

### Review

**4 Unicorns!** "A Calculated Seduction is another winner from Melissa Schroeder. Dulcy is a heroine who readers will quickly come to care for and Ethan is a hero that will make you want to smack him even as your falling a little in love with him. Add to this Dulcy's wacky next door neighbor, her meddling former boss (who is also Ethan's uncle), two beautiful but ditzy step-sisters, a step-mother who needs constant attention, a limo ride that should have melted the tires off and A Calculated Seduction should be on everyone's to-be-read list."

"The novel is at times suspenseful and humorous. It is my pick for a great beach book-luckily it is available in paperback." Novel Spot Reviews
