Orchid by Jayne Ann Krentz, Jayne Castle
4.0
Rafe is an off the charts Strat Talent, which is on the "primitive" side of the spectrum. He walked away from the family business, knowing he wouldn't be able to work FOR his grandfather. He works in investments, with a side hobby of investigation. Now though, the family business is at risk, and his cousin ... who looks to be next in line ... wants to destroy the company in revenge for the death of his father. Rafe is making plans to be the next CEO, but he needs a wife ... ASAP.
Once again Hobart Bats is tapped to find Rafe a suitable match ... with very specific requirements. When it's clear to Rafe that Bats probably won't find a match in time .. He goes on the hunt.
Orchid is the romance writer the previous books keeps mentioning. She also happens to be an Ice Prism, who works for Psynergy, Inc. She comes from a very Zen family, but she's the black sheep who broke from the fold ... so she's working hard on her writing, but does focus work on the side to supplement her income.
Rafe has been out hiring full-spectrum prisms, looking for a viable wife candidate. He seems to be taken with Orchid, even though she really doesn't fit most of his parameters. His frivolous cases turn into a pretty serious investigation, and Orchid decides she's well-adept for investigative type work. The case eventually ties back to Orchid's past.
These two are my favorite in this trilogy. Although, I'm not sure why the men ... who are friends ... interact so seldom. Overall, the series would have been so much enjoyable had the women actually interacted with each other.
