SUBJECT: Connor Quinn FAMILY HISTORY: Wealthy inventor, long-lost sibling to the Extraordinary Five DEEPEST SECRET: His loss of vision is not his only blindness Connor Quinn had been born blind and sent as a baby to live at an orphanage, never knowing his true origins as a child of Code Proteus. He'd compensated for his lack of sight with his creativity and brilliance--becoming a renowned inventor. Despite his achievements, Connor had shut himself away, unwilling to risk affection, or the vulnerability it led to. That was before child psychologist Alyssa Fielding challenged him to reveal the man behind the arrogant mask he'd constructed...and discover the siblings he'd never known. An ex-model, Alyssa knew that appearances could be deceiving, and beneath Connor's cool facade lurked a passionate and loving man. Could she teach Connor that the sight that really mattered resided in the heart? (from the back of the book) I've read 8 out of 12 of the Family Secrets/Extraordinary 5 series. All are well written and the stories mesh remarkably successfully, considering that each is by a different author. You definitely have to suspend disbelief about the overall plot of the series, but the relationships are well realized and you'll care about the characters. All the romances sizzle. Here is the series in order (c. 2003-2004): Enemy Mind, by Maggie Shayne Pyramid of Lies, by Anne Marie Winston The Player, by Evelyn Vaughn The Bluewater Affair, by Cindy Gerard Her Beautiful Assassin, by Virginia Kantra A Verdict of Love, by Jenna Mills The Billionaire Drifter, by Beverly Bird Fever, by Linda Winstead Jones Blind Attraction, by Myrna Mackenzie The Parker Project, by Joan Elliott Pickart The Insider, by Ingrid Weaver Check Mate, by Beverly Barton
