Lucy Monroe is one of my favorite writers. —Lora LeighWhen reporter Alan Hyatt is assigned to investigate a case of high-tech espionage in the Vancouver film industry—and meets sizzling actress Jillian Carlyle—he finds a perfect reason to work in bed. But Jillian is also his landlady—and she doesn't date her renters. When Jillian suggests he play a background actor on her sci-fi show to get closer to his suspects, Alan's not about to turn down the red-hot redhead, even if she keeps throwing him curves. . .Alan may be six-feet-something of chiseled ruggedness, but Jillian doesn't do relationships with men who stir more than her senses. No one is getting a chance at her heart. Especially not one of her renters. Still, there's nothing wrong with enjoying Alan from afar—but not too far to appreciate his rock-hard abs. If only he didn't make her feel safe and oh so right whenever they touch. . . "Monroe writes with a flourish the type of lovemaking and desire that women can truly appreciate." -Romantic Times on 3 Brides for 3 Bad Boys"Monroe's exciting romance is a great read." -Booklist on Ready
