However, Zara is already an obstacle to someone's hidden agenda, and is in danger of being eliminated in the same manner as her father. As they get closer to the answers, Dave and Zara get closer to each other until their attraction ignites a romantic passion that has no shut-off valve.This story steam-injects a dose of strong and smart heroine, and adds a professional-grade coating of high-heat sexual encounters. Zara Flynn inherits more than she contracted for beneath the steel beams and concrete of El Mirador, and faces both a personal and environmental dilemma. Will she sign on and see this project though to completion? Will you? Jean Maxwell was born in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada at the tail-end of the baby boomer era, which she says makes her a "late-boomer". It's a lot like her writing, which she didn't start until many decades later. But Jean was always an artist at heart, having practically come out of the womb with pencil in hand and blessed with (as the fictional John Hammond put it) a 'deplorable excess' of creativity. A graphic designer as well as a musician, the muses clearly have had their way with her and aren't done yet. To date, she has 5 published novels to her credit and more than a dozen ghostwritten works. To keep a pulse on the public's literary tastes, she also reviews books for a popular romance review website. She still resides in her home town and enjoys things 'the Canadian way', which means having the outdoors as a best friend, apologizing for no real reason, bemoaning an overtaxed and over-governed society but remaining blissfully unconcerned about politics, religion or gender issues. We think it's the weed.... :) A multi-generational saga of passion, vision, and the legacies of a family business operating in every continent on the globe. Engineer Tristan Flynn sets the story in motion when he meets and marries young Marlena Sanchez while travelling through Spain as a backpacking undergrad, eventually establishing Flynn Enterprises, a multi-billion dollar engineering firm. The series follows the lives and loves of their offspring, business colleagues and descendants, each of whom bring their own passions to the Flynn dynasty, criss-crossing oceans, continents and racial boundaries.
