Best Laid Plans

Description

Raven-haired anchorwoman Violet Gallagher is a planner and a plotter, not a dreamer. She reads self-help books, not fairy tales; keeps a five-year plan, not a journal. But when she catches the eye of a handsome stranger across the room at a party given in her honor, it suddenly feels like a very enchanted evening. Jake Macintyre, globe-trotting photojournalist and Prince Charming look-alike, is as impulsive as Violet is cautious. Although he knows the unexpected interlude with his dream-girl from the nightly news is ill-timed, his motto is seize the moment and the girl! So, with no fairy godmother to impose a curfew, Violet allows Jake to escort her home after midnight, where she loses more than just her dancing shoes. The next morning, however, she discovers he isn t the sort of Prince who hangs around the castle, but the adventurous kind who slays dragons, pursues grails, and embarks on quests. Or, as he explains it, he s about to begin a year-long assignment in a distant foreign country. Violet s fairy tale, alas, will have no happily ever after. Or will it? This isn t The End, but only the first chapter of a timeless love story . . . Sensuality Level: Sensual Although she was admonished to stop making things up when she was a child, Elizabeth Palmer never did. She took early retirement from her job in IT, and now spends her days with the ever-changing cast of characters in her head, her handsome husband, and the requisite author s cat.
