Summary: Loved Dorsey & Adam!!
Review: Who'd thought beauty and brains would mesh so well? Of course, it has gotten Dorsey "Mack" MacGuiness aka Lauren Grable-Monroe in quite a tight spot. By day, she's a Ph.D. student, teaching at a local university. By night, she's a smart-mouthed sexy bartender at Drakes, a men-only prestigeous club in Chicago. Well, the Lauren side of her wrote the book "How to Trap a Tycoon" which has been the talk of the town. And soon it has become the talk of the country. Of course, the Dorsey side of her can't seem to handle the fame and the notoriety that comes with it. And the Mack side of her is falling hopelessly in love with Adam Darien, a tycoon himself.This story of multiple identities is funny and absolutely entertaining. Adam Darien is totally contemporary and sexy. And Dorsey is not only smart and funny, she also has the guts to pull off playing hot Lauren Grable-Monroe. Of course, that act doesn't last very long... but it's wonderful how both of the main characters evolve into their "real" self in the course of the novel. And who'd thought reading men's thoughts would be SO hilarious? (Well, me, for one...) The secondary romance of Lucas Conaway (an employee of Adam) and Edie Mulholland (a fellow bartender at Drake's) is so sweet and satisfying! Both of their relationships carried an element of seriousness and a bit of the dark side but it is well balanced with wittiness and humor. And of course, being that it *is* a romance novel, the happy ending is just sweet enough.

Summary: SURF'S UP!!
Review: With summer around the corner and vacations imminent, here's the perfect beach blanket book. Well, you might be a little embarrassed by the title but, trust me, you'll love it. Funny, sexy and smart. The characters are intelligent, and thank goodness the hero doesn't desert the heroine in her time of need. Let's face it, most authors feel the need for too much conflict. This is the perfect blend for a great romance. A fun read for your vacation (or anytime). After having read "Her Man Friday" (3 stars), I wasn't very enthusiastic about reading another book by this author. However, ... kept recommending it so I finally caved. Good move on my part! Will definitely check out her books in the future.
