This is the first book I’ve read from this author, and again I made the right choice of picking up her book. I’m not really much of a fan of NASCAR – I’m no car lover but if I’m to choose a car event, I’d go for F1 than NASCAR. But anyway, Nancy Warren – together with the animation flick CARS – convinced me otherwise.

So, here’s the summary for the book:

Dylan Hargreave thinks I’m an actress paid to pose as his girlfriend at a North Carolina society wedding. How did this happen to me, of all people? Kendall Clarke, award-winning actuary, the veritable shining star of number crunchers who, just hours ago, learned her responsible fiancé (sorry, ex-fiancé) called off our wedding because he’d gotten one of my colleagues pregnant. What are the odds?

Don’t tell me you’ve never heard of Dylan Hargreave. Celebrity NASCAR driver? People magazine’s Sexiest Man of the Year? Those eyes. That smile…

Forget sensible! I’ve assessed the risk…and I’m taking it! I usually keep the brakes on, but as of now I’m taking a vacation. From me.

Nice, isn’t it? Warren made Dylan absolutely drool-worthy, and not just for his looks! Kendall’s also adorable – and the way she, umm, went for her personality was absolutely cool. The climax scened didn’t make me cry – you’d have to go to Harlequin Presents for that – but it did make my heart twinge which is almost as good. Anyway, this book wasn’t written to be a tearjerker. It was written to give readers fun and I did have that.

Rating: 9/10 *

*but only because this just isn’t my favorite Harlequin line.
