When Davis Murphy, cowboy wannabe and one of Dallas' most eligible bachelors, asks Charlie Nelson to pretend to be his fiancée, her reaction is to run far and fast. Charlie, raised by two older, very protective, brothers on a South Texas cattle ranch, wants only one thing: to avoid thrill-seeking cowboys. She clings to the security of her safe and steady job as a librarian. Davis needs a fiancée so his widowed mother will marry her gentleman friend whose company is transferring him to Japan. She has refused to wed until Davis is settled.
Charlie is the perfect answer if only she'll go along with the scheme. Can he talk her into becoming his temporary fiancée? And once he does, can he convince her to become his real wife?
"Totally entertaining and superbly written! The sparring and interaction between the two main characters kept me turning the pages until the book was finished. Never once did I wish to put it down. ....This book is a keeper! A book I highly recommend and an author to watch in the future!"

June 05, 2001: Ms. Carmichael's debut book is amusing and witty. Her characters are charming and just thinking about them brings on a smile. Her writing style reminds me of that of Patti Berg, one of my favorite authors. I would especially recommend this one to young adult readers as it has no sex, and concentrates on the emotional relationship more than the physical.
