The Loving Daylights — Lynsay Sands

Shy Jane Spyrus loved gadgets. She could build anything B.L.I.S.S. needed in that organization's international fight against crime--although its agents weren't exactly queuing up at her door. Some of them thought her innovations were too ... well, innovative. Like her shrink-wrap prophylactic constraints, or her spray-on truth serum. But they just didn't realize those items' potential.

Of course, you couldn't use wacky inventions to fix all your problems; Jane knew that better than anyone. Her neighbor had been kidnapped, driving that point home. She would have to team up with another human being--and Abel Andretti arrived just in time. He would help Jane find her neighbor, stop the evil machinations of tall Dirk Ensecksi, and most of all he would have to show her how to love the daylights out of something without batteries.
