Synopsis
HERE COMES THE BRIDE...
Rustic Colorado is hardly Claire Brown’s idea of a primo vacation spot, but
the weeklong getaway at a romantic mountain lodge promises to heal a rift
with her increasingly detached fiancé. Armed with her trusty laptop and
constantly ringing cell phone, Claire decides to give this vacation thing a
try. She can’t help sensing, though, that her fiancé might not be as
committed to their relationship as she is. The dead giveaway: he’s brought
another woman along on their romantic holiday…
THERE GOES THE GROOM!
As proprietor of Hunter’s Lodge, John McBride is duty-bound to find suitable
accommodations under his sold-out roof for the cell phone addicted,
just-jilted guest. As a red-blooded man whose pet peeve is workaholic women,
he’s determined to steer clear of the suddenly single dynamo who’s just
checked in for the next nine days. Unfortunately, the annoying, yet very
alluring, Claire has a way of popping up when he least expects it—and as
John soon discovers, so does true love...

August 08, 2006: Poor Claire's vacation sounds like some of mine. First, she shows up at the mountain resort luxury suite she had gotten her fianc? for his birthday and he's sharing it with another woman! He tells her it was a birthday gift so he figured he could take whoever he wanted. She insists on staying, much to the owner's dismay, even though there are no vacant rooms. She ends up on a cot in a storage room above the garage and has to use the staff bathroom. All her luggage was somehow rerouted to a foreign country and she's forced to use clothes from the lost and found. This book was hysterical and the story of two complete opposites trying to fight their attraction just adds to the fun.

January 14, 2002:
Claire Brown was one of Allied Adjusters' top account coordinators. She handled several of the company's top clients. Since she and her fianc?, Bryan Edwards, needed some time together, Claire arranged for them to spend nine days together at Hunter's Lodge in the mountains of Colorado. She never dreamed Bryan would bring along another woman!
John McBride was the proprietor of Hunter's Lodge. When it became clear that Claire was jilted, his assistant, Dana, found accommodations for her, even though the lodge was booked. John believed Claire to be the workaholic type of woman he detested. She constantly worked, even while on 'vacation'. So why did he find himself so attracted to the woman?
Then Claire received an email stating her boss was in the hospital and she was temporarily in charge. She had no problem with that until she learned that some accounts cared for by Bryan and his father were ... wrong!
**** This is a terrific story, in which, everything that could go wrong, DID! A lot of romantic tense with some humor on the side, makes this one a winner! ****
