"Fans of Susan Elizabeth Phillip's Nobody's Baby But Mine will go for this hilarious romp, too." Booklist Big blond wig. Do-me shoes. A bra that could serve as a floatation device. She's about to take her genius IQ for a walk on the bimbo side. Someone's pilfering company secrets at Just Peachy, a giant cosmetics firm owned by hunky Steve Smith. When he decides to do some undercover security in disguise as "Stephanie" Smith, his sister Leah, a sociologist working on her doctorate, grabs her own undercover opportunity to prove her theory that nerds stand no chance in the world. She interviews for a low-level security job first as "Leah the super-nerd" then as "Candi Devereaux," a stereotypical out-to-there bimbo. To her shock, security specialist Mark Colson hires both of her. Mark isn't fooled--Leah/Candi are obviously the same woman, a suspicious character, and quite likely the corporate thief. He'll stay very close to her. As for Leah, the highly unsettling and extremely irresistible Mr. Colson begins to rattle all her assumptions about what a man wants from a woman. It's about honesty . . . unfortunately. In the meantime, "Stephanie" has met his match in corporate rival Kate Bloom, who is determined to best the smart new woman in the company. And yet, Kate feels flustered by Stephanie's strangely masculine appeal . . . . Trish Jensen is the USA Today bestselling author of STUCK WITH YOU.

"I laughed so hard I fell off the couch . . . . Don't read this book while eating or drinking, you might snarf something down the wrong way and hurt yourself. . . . on behalf of all fans of screwball comedies, I'd like to thank you Trish. More, please." - All About Romance Food fight, love match, or both? She's a lovable klutz trying to save her family's restaurant chain. He's a stuffed shirt angling to buy it. Who will trip up and fall in love first? Darcy Welham's dad is ready to sell his five-star restaurants and retire, but she's determined to prove she can be trusted to keep the family business going. Darcy's sure it's what her mother would have wanted. Only one problem: her life turns into a comedy show when she's nervous. Pratfalls, spills, slips and fires--all in a day's misadventures for Darcy. She can't even wait on tables without dumping food into the customers' laps. When supper lands on a sensitive area of businessman Michael Davidson's finely creased trousers, he tries to have his gorgeous but careless waitress fired, only to discover that she's the person he has to win over if he wants to buy the restaurant chain for his bosses. From that antagonistic start, Darcy and Michael soon find that there's more to each other than first expected. She's clumsy because she's got low self-esteem. She may be a disaster as a waitress, but she's a genius as a cook, with a talent for creating mouth-watering new dishes. Darcy begins to realize that Michael is not a stuffed shirt at heart--he's patient, strong and brave, which any man who dates Darcy has to be, because she turns into a Danger Zone every time he makes her heart flutter.

Accident? Suicide? Or Murder? Searching for the answer may just get her killed. The last thing Meg O'Brian wants is further contact with her ex-husband, Don, and his young trophy wife. She's ready to move on, to start a new life, maybe with a new man who knows nothing about her past failure at love. But now Don is dead, possibly murdered, putting their 15-year-old son's financial legacy and emotional security at risk for the second time in the year since the divorce. Meg must investigate Don's tangled business affairs and turn up the heat on his tawdry widow. Unfortunately, the only one who can help her discover the truth is the man who destroyed all her illusions two years ago--her cynical, burnt-out-on-matrimony marriage counselor, Mike Warren, the guy who knows her history all too well and won't hesitate to use it against her. _____________________________________________________________________________ Alicia Rasley grew up in the placid old mountains of SW Virginia. She teaches writing at a community college and is a guest lecturer and writing advisor at a state university. Between sadistic bouts of grading papers, she hangs out and talks sentences with co-blogger Theresa at the Edittorrent blog. She lives now in the flatlands of Indiana with her husband Jeff, who is also a writer and runs a foundation to benefit villages in Nepal. For a two-writer family, there is remarkably little artistic temperament. But the house is filled with crammed bookcases and overflowing magazine racks.

Combining humor and wisdom, this timely volume examines how presidential campaigns can—and often have—become undone by an unguarded comment, an unintentional misrepresentation, or an unwise initiative. Almost every politician has occasionally misspoken, sometimes with disastrous effect, sometimes with little effect at all. O.O.P.S.: Observing Our Politicians Stumble: The Worst Candidate Gaffes and Recoveries in Presidential Campaigns observes and analyzes this phenomenon to document why some gaffes prove fatal while others are easily survived. Combining humor with a thorough knowledge of American politics, author Stephen Frantzich uses detailed vignettes to showcase a wide range of slipups committed by presidential candidates from 1968 through 2008. He looks at what really happened in each case, as well as whether the video and reportage accurately reflected what was said or done. By delving into the reasons the media and the public react to gaffes as they do, this thoroughly entertaining analysis provides fresh insights into the workings of presidential campaigns and the roles of candidates, their handlers, the media, and the voting public, underscoring, among other things, how the media revolution has changed the landscape of presidential campaigns.
