When lowly bank teller Adair Weiss receives such an offer from reclusive philanthropist Fletcher Streiker, she is dumbfounded and disbelieving: Why me? What does he know about me? What does he want? Rejecting his offer would end her dream of dancing. But accepting it would change her life in ways she never guessed. . . . Streiker's Bride, the first book of The Streiker Saga, is followed by Streiker: The Killdeer and Streiker's Morning Sun.
