Book description
Scenic designer Carly Foster just started her last summer theatre
job, and at the ripe old age of twenty-nine, she promised herself it
would be a working vacation in the mountains of New Mexico - with no
romance allowed. She's finished with the “drama trauma” of theatre
romance: her love life has never been beyond Act One because she can't
stay away from tortured artists. Not this time.
But luck is so not on her side: she's stuck in a touristy ghost town
with a charming bodyguard who's flirting with her just to relieve his
own boredom: Asher Day, the producer's brother recently returned from
New York City with an armload of empty canvasses and a vanload of
attitude. A sexy painter who won't talk about his past? So typical.
But Carly is determined not to experience a repeat of her past
relationships. If only Asher could live up to his wounded artist
persona, she could kick him to the curb and stick by her goal to stay
away from the type of guy who stomps on her spirit.
But the magnetic pull she feels from Asher is irresistible: he has
inner strength and compassion, not to mention a heart-melting wink and
kisses that leave her sleepless. If Carly can't keep the drama in the
theatre and out of her personal life, not only will she have bags
under her eyes, but her heart will never survive the summer.
Sensuality Level: Sensual
After spending years in professional theatre as a costume
designer, Laura Simcox eased out of the hectic whirlwind of
opening nights and settled in a comfy desk chair to write romance. She
believes that life is too short not to appreciate quirky humor and her
novels are lighthearted journeys into the happily-ever-after. She
lives in North Carolina with her true love and adorable toddler son.
