Analyn Sanchez can handle the long hours and arrogant clients that come with her job as a crisis management associate at Denver's largest publicity firm. The high-powered job, expensive condo, and designer wardrobe are all part of her plan to prove to her family that her life choices haven't been in vain. But when she's asked to cover up a client's misdeeds with serious moral and legal ramifications, she can no longer sacrifice her conscience for her career . . . and the cost is no less than her job.
Ever since a devastating climbing accident in South America eight months ago, and a bad decision that dried up his sponsorships, professional rock climber Bryan Shaw has found himself at similar loose ends. When the opportunity to buy a coffee farm in Colombia arises, he jumps on it—only to discover his wandering ways have left him utterly unprepared to run a business.
When Bryan returns home and offers Ana a role in his company as a solution to both their problems, she's desperate enough to consider working with the far-too-flippant and far-too-handsome climber, even though he's the polar opposite of her type A nature. As they delve deeper into the business, however, she begins to suspect there's much more to Bryan than she's given him credit for . . . and that sometimes the best plans are the ones you never see coming.

      Professional mountain climber Bryan Shaw loved only one woman, and she broke his heart. After an accident in Central America and some bad decisions ruin his expedition sponsorship, Shaw finds redemption while working on a farm in Columbia. The farmers have turned from growing drug crops to cultivating coffee, and Bryan decides to buy the farm, determined to import, roast, and distribute the coffee to Denver coffeehouses. To get his business started, Bryan turns to an old friend, Ana, for business tips. Ana is a high-powered promoter on a temporary leave from her job, and she agrees to design a marketing campaign. Both are determined to keep their interactions on a "strictly business" footing, but both soon feel a strong attraction to the other. This is a sweet romance with likable if stubborn characters who are trying to get their lives back on track. The coffee-making details are interesting; the characters' attempts to resist each other add a nice dose of tension, and Bryan and Ana's spiritual quests ring true. Readers looking for gentle, faith-based romance will be pleased.
