(Paperback)
Peach Kelley brings a little light into the lives of everyone she works with-or so she likes to think. And she's a whiz at helping her coworkers at Millennium Gift Baskets with their romantic problems. Even though her own love life is the pits, finding a boyfriend is the last thing on her mind-until she meets the new network administrator, Adam Quinlan.
Preoccupied with his own chaotic life, Quin thinks Peach is spunky, pretty...and a big nuisance. But when one of their coworkers mysteriously disappears, the two join forces to dig around for answers. For the first time ever, Peach may have gotten herself into a situation she can't get out of-falling in love.

A member of the Phi Beta Kappa Society, she graduated summa cum laude from Boston College. She has taught women's studies and been published in Stylus, Boston College's literary magazine.

July 21, 2006: This book is OK... I was a little disappointed though. I really enjoyed Blushing Pink & Plum Girl so I was surprised this story line wasn't as good.

August 01, 2005: With her overly perky attitude towards life, Peach Kelley is very popular, even if her own life lacks romance. She's too busy trying to make sure everyone else is happy to be concerned about that. Her latest effort is getting the officer nerd set up with a lady she is sure will make him happy. Unfortunately, he disappears under strange circumstances, and thus, Peach feels obligated to find out what happened. To accomplish this, she needs Adam Quinlan's help, as he has access to resources she lacks. Soon, they are up to their ears in the investigation and finding out two things 1. something rotten is going on in their company, and 2. they are deeply attracted to each other against all logic. ............................... If the plot had focused on either romance or a mystery, it might have worked. As it is, the ''suspense' had a contrived feeling and the romance was shallow. However, Buster, the Bichon was a highly appealing character.
