Dateless in Dallas

Originally published by Silhouette Books in October 1996

WHAT MADDIE HATFIELD LEARNED FROM FINDING THE PERFECT MATE:

Rule #1: Never date a co-worker– just because Derek Newman is every woman’s fantasy, that doesn’t mean he’s husband material.

Rule #2: After a string for dating disasters, avoid turning to your co-worker for comfort — you might find there’s more to Derek than his baby blues.

Rule #3: Don’t fall in love with your co-worker — no matter how good it feels to be in Derek’s arms.

Rule #4: If rules 1-3 fail, refer to Planning the Perfect Wedding.
