BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Jess Brannen adores practical jokes, which is why she and her friends plan a raucous bachelorette party at a male strip club in Atlantic City for an unsuspecting bride-to-be. But the next morning, the joke is on Jess: She wakes up next to Nick Mikaris, the renowned architect who she had hoped would hire her landscaping company. An intense night of passion is not the sort of pitch meeting she had in mind.
Nick Mikaris isn’t one to mix business with pleasure, but he’s willing to make an exception in Jess’s case. Nick is tempted by Jess’s work proposal—and by the captivating woman herself. Touching Jess is delicious and addictive, but she seems determined to ignore the undeniable attraction between them. Now Nick, ever the practical architect, must convince Jess that they have what it takes to design a long and lasting life together.
REVIEW:
What a cute story. Not only is the story interesting but it is just a little off the norm of what books always seem to be. This is a re-release from 1988 and mostly it is not dated. I liked that Jess was a landscaper and not some frilly thing. And I enjoyed Nick so very much. Talk about your dream guy!
I started this book late thinking I would read a little before bed and didn’t go to sleep until it was done. It is not long with only about 120 pages but it is well worth the read. This is one I am glad they are re-releasing!
