Synopsis
Accountant Heather Montgomery is a planner. So never in her wildest dreams did she think she'd run into sexy charmer Tony McCaffrey in Vegas, play lady luck, and celebrate his jackpot with a champagne-soaked night. And she certainly never expected to wake up the next morning married! How could this good girl pick a man whose fridge is empty and whose apartment is a disaster zone, yet still drives her so crazy with lust she can't see straight?
Quickly hitched and happily ditched, Tony can't wait to get back to his playboy ways. But when Heather's family is thrilled that their no-nonsense daughter is finally in love, he proposes a plan: stay married for a month to repay his good luck charm, even though she sterilizes his toothbrush and forbids anything between the sheets. But Heather is more than he bargained for—a sharp-witted, passionate woman who just might turn his near miss into wedded bliss!
Kristin Ramsdell - Library Journal
When a wild night of champagne and jackpots in Vegas results in marriage to sexy playboy Tony McCaffrey, brainy and normally sane accountant Heather Montgomery is appalled that she could have done something so "unplanned." Of course, Tony is equally stunned and anxious to undo the deed; unfortunately, Heather's marriage-obsessed family is thrilled about it, which makes things a bit more difficult. A very short-term marriage followed by a divorce seems to be the solution-until love works its magic. Opposites do attract in this fast-paced, diverting romantic comedy with more than its share of lively fun. Graves (Hot Wheels and High Heels) lives in Richardson, TX.

June 26, 2008: I would have given this book 3 Stars had it not been so funny. I had to put it down a couple of times because I was laughing so hard my eyes watered.
