"Ginny calls around ten, just as I'm hanging up with a client. She sounds urgent.
"Margo, it might be perfect"
I have heard this before.
"Four bedrooms, renovated kitchen, great yard. Right over the DC line--before you ask, yes, it's in the top-choice neighborhood. And guess what? No one else knows about it! It's not listed yet."
That part--the "It's not listed" part--stops me mid-sip of coffee. It pulls me up from my littel desk by the apartment's floor-to-ceiling window, a hunk of bait just juicy enough to make me forget that it could be wrapped around a sharp, painful hook. Ian comes to a standstill in the kitchen, his hazel eyes zeroing in on me."

Buying the perfect house could be competitive after all... Published last November by Celadon Books, Best Offer Wins by Marisa Kashino is on my TBR list and available at your favorite bookstore.
