    About this audiobook

    The captivating new novel from the New York Times best selling author of Grand Passion!

    Passion is simple, but there's no logic to love....

    When Desdemona Wainwright tries to collect a much-needed payment for catering Sam Stark's canceled wedding reception, she encounters not a heartbroken suitor, but the steel-willed head of a multimillion-dollar consulting firm with the cold brain of a computer -- and the finely hewn body of a medieval knight. Sam sees a beautiful, theatrical hoyden with huge turquoise eyes who has just the right professional catering skills he needs for his business. Opposites attract, and before long, he's sure he's found the perfect business wife; but Desdemona intends to break down the walls around his heart.

    When someone tries to steal his top-secret computer program, Sam's suspicions center on the people Desdemona holds most dear. As sinister intrigues swirl around them all, this unlikely pair discover that their love and even their lives may depend on emotions and bonds that can't be measured -- like unstoppable passion and unbreakable trust. Filled with fabulous fun, tingling suspense, and a wonderful new love story, Trust Me is great entertainment.

      Sweet and fluffy as a shrimp-stuffed puff pastry. Desdemona Wainwright has a steady job and a supportive, if overly dramatic family. Somewhat of a pigeon among peacocks, Desdemona is startled to find herself attracted to somewhat robotic Sam Stark - even as she's attempting to gently guide him into paying her catering bill for his failed wedding.For his part, computer mogul Sam is baffled, but entranced by the petite redhead. The complication? An attempt to hack Sam's cyber-security project points a finger squarely at Desdemon's step-brother. What's a girl to do? Why hire a security expert to get to the bottom of things, of course.

      This book has all the familiar JAK themes - Sam Stark is a cold computer nerd, Desdemona is a warm caterer with a family full of the dramatic types. They meet as he is stood up at the altar, and she still wants him to pay for the catering (after all, the ice sculptures have melted too much for any chance of reuse) It's sweet and funny, and both of them have family issues and the HEA feels real and solid. It's very 90's - no one uses emails or cell phones, but charming nonetheless. It's a keeper and a reread for me.

      Another great book by Mrs Krentz, love and mistery together
    • 5/5
      "Trust Me" is the story of Desdemona and Stark.

      An utterly charming and intriguing romance, between a caterer and a computer genius!

      When our heroine decides to cater the Stark wedding, she never expects that the bride would run and that she would have to be there to console the distraught groom. Left at the alter the second time, our hero is cursing his luck, when the heroine decides to invite him to her family's theater performance. Shocked and fascinated, he accompanies her only to meet the very eccentric Wainwright clan. This leads to him hiring her as a permanent client for all his functions. Soon they embark on a passionate sexual relationship while falling in love with each other. Their journey is laden with charming family members and nosy neighbors, software espionage and abandoned relatives, blood loyalty and betrayal suspicions- but their blooming relationship is able to stand the test of time.

      The well-written plot, carefully sketched-out characters that pull you in and root for them, beautiful relationships,s and crazy hot sex scenes. The hero was a stellar gentleman, and the heroine was a trustworthy and strong woman.

      Really enjoyed it!

      A strong opening with millionaire computer genius Sam Stark left standing at the altar for the second time and Desdemona Wainwright, his wedding reception caterer, left with the bill. After patiently listening to his self-censuring tale of woe, she finally gets through to him long enough to get paid, and thus begins a growing relationship between two very different personalities.

      Computer espionage puts in an appearance and propels the story forward, but the progress is held back by the baggage of Desdemona's extended theatrical family and similar complications on Sam's side.

      Ms Krentz probably did some homework to make the computer hacking realistic, but not enough to make this element of the story convincing. Some dreadful plot holes in mid-story didn't help, and the airport scene at the end, with family and friends allowed a front-row seat at an FBI takedown, was almost juvenile in its naivety.

      Desdemona's optimistic and trusting personality was a tad too sugary, and Sam's misanthropic nerd character peppery and unsympathetic.
