Puzzle of the Heart

By Jennifer Leeland

It's Valentine's Day and Tonya Paul would love to celebrate, but it's a day she'd rather forget. Ironically, she makes chocolate novelty items called "Heart Puzzles" that have become the new necessary Valentine's Day gift. She has no idea that her co-worker and former boyfriend, Sean McHenry wasn't going to let another day go by without telling her the truth. Sean's plan is desperate, but after a year of waiting for Tonya to get a clue, he's done with patience. It will take a lot more than rope and brute force to get her to listen, but he's willing to use both to get to the truth. It's a heart puzzle he believes is worth piecing together. The question is whether Tonya will break his heart in the end.

Jennifer Leeland

New York Times best selling author Jennifer Leeland has been telling stories since she was very young. Most people were so small minded as to call it lying until she was able to put her stories on paper. Now they call it fiction.To know what she writes, you have to know that the first question she asks about a book or movie is "Does it have a happy ending?". If it doesn't, she's not interested. Her love of kinky people and kinky stuff has led her to write about relationships that are slightly bent and probably flawed. You can always count on two things with a Jennifer Leeland book: angst and kink.She lives with a Redneck, who loves to brainstorm with her on occasion and her two hulking teenagers in the Northern California Boonies. She is also a moderator for the award winning writer's forum Romance Divas where I've been a member since 2006.To learn more you can go to http://jenniferleeland.com

The streamers looked like Pepto Bismal. Tonya glared at the decorations as the office party noise rose louder around her. Idiots. She took another sip of her white wine and wondered one more time why she was here.

Yes, the company celebrated Valentine’s Day every year. And why not? They were a chocolate company that became successful with a novelty item no one had made before and now had become a staple every February 14th like Candy Canes at Christmas.

How is your drink, Miss Paul? Her boss grinned as he waved a bottle of wine in her face. She studied him over her wine glass. Big, jolly and happy, Winston Jergens invented the chocolate puzzles so popular at the moment. Incredibly, the man came up with a brilliant way to use chocolate and created Romantic Riddles. Each box contained a series of chocolate pieces when put together spelled out a personalized message for the recipient. Tonya had been there when
