Simon O'Neal's causing trouble again. And it's up to Gail DeMarco to stop him.Gail DeMarco left Whiskey Creek, California, to make a name for herself in Los Angeles. Her PR firm has accumulated a roster of A-list clients, including the biggest box office hit of all—sexy and unpredictable Simon O'Neal. But Simon, who's just been through a turbulent divorce, is so busy self-destructing he won't listen to anything she says. She drops him from her list—and he retaliates by taking the rest of her clients with him.Desperate to save her company, Gail has to humble herself by making a deal with Simon. The one thing he wants is custody of his son, but that's going to require a whole new image. He needs to marry some squeaky-clean girl who'll drag him off to some small, obscure place like Whiskey Creek….Gail's the only one he can trust. She agrees to become his wife—reluctantly. But she isn't reluctant because he's too hard to like. It's because he's too hard not to love!

I picked this one up on sale a month or so ago at the recommendation of Smart Bitches Trashy Books (I think), but I struggled to get through When Li...
Another book with actors! I was hoping it wouldn't bring back my old prejudices about actors in books but it was really sweet and except for the paparazzi, Simon could have had any other occupation. The romance was sweet. I live in Sacramento which they talk about and have driven many times up ar...
I've read the Whiskey Creek books somewhat out of order (4 first, then 1.5, now this one), and while I liked this book I am comforted by the possibility that the books will get better going forward. I enjoyed the fourth book more, so I hope that portends well for book two. I think it's because this ...
