One True Love?. Stephanie Doyle

Чтение книги онлайн.

      Dear Reader,

      Most of the people I work with in my office know two things about me: I’m horrible with clichés and I have a tendency—a little, tiny, teeny-weeny tendency—to be dramatic. In fact, it has been said on more than one occasion that no one could be more dramatic than I am.

      So naturally I set out to prove them all wrong.

      My heroine, Corinne Weatherby, is definitely the most dramatic person I know. This is why it takes the calming influence of a man like my hero, Matthew Relic, to settle her down. But as Corinne quickly discovers, when it comes to love and passion and dancing, there’s nothing calm about Matthew! He’s absolutely one of my favorite heroes. You just can’t help but fall in love with him. Neither can Corinne.

      This book is for everyone who has gone in search of true love, only to find it smack-dab under their noses.

      Enjoy!

      Could she really have an affair with Matthew?

      Why had Corinne never noticed how good-looking he was? He was gorgeous! But he was her friend…could they have an affair and still be friends?

      “Matthew, I don’t know about this.”

      Somberly he nodded. “We are taking a big risk.”

      “It’s just that this is all so new, so scary,” she added.

      “Scary? It’s not like you could get sick,” he assured her.

      Corinne made a face. “I’m not worried about getting sick. I’m worried you’ll be disappointed.” After all, it had been a while for her. Did one forget how to do these things?

      He shrugged his shoulders. “I’m pretty easy to please.”

      “I’m worried you’ll hate me in the morning when you realize…”

      “As long as they have chicken on the menu…” he said at the same time.

      They stopped speaking. Then Matthew got a pained look on his face. “We’re not talking about the same thing, are we?”

      To the lunch crowd—especially Carolyn, Jeanine, Dawn, Mike, Bill, Paul and Chuck, with occasional special guest appearances from Matt and Jim. You guys manage to keep me laughing and sane in a sometimes insane place.

      May the bridge always be burning when we get to it!

      Welcome to Harlequin Flipside! If you love a dash of wit and cleverness with your romance, then this is the line for you. These stories are for readers who appreciate that, if love makes the world go around, the ride is a lot more fun with a few laughs along the way.

      Leading off the launch, we have USA TODAY bestselling author Millie Criswell with Staying Single. This heroine is determined to remain single—three almost weddings is enough for one girl, isn’t it?—no matter what her marriage-focused mother says. But after meeting a certain photojournalist, she just might have second thoughts….

      Rounding out the month is Stephanie Doyle’s One True Love? Believing that each person has only one true love, our heroine is in a bit of a dilemma. Turns out that the guy she picked isn’t the same guy who’s captured her thoughts. This calls for some rearranging…fast!
