I actually laughed aloud at quite a few points in this book--nothing like two hard headed people who are each trying to one up each other while trying to deny their mutual attraction! It doesn't help that they are both police officers and that one of them messed up the others collar. They both have vindictive bosses and are forced to work together---both trying to ignore that attraction--or at least one of them is! Of course they are trying to solve two crimes and run into some pretty mean and crazy characters. I will definitely be reading more of this author's novels!!
About the book: (from Amazon)
In Cinderella Blue, a Romantic Comedy, Love means never having to say, "You're under arrest."
Pre-order price of 99cents ends on April 13, 2015.
Too bad, because Detective Andrea Luft--Andie to her friends--loves those 3 little words--especially when she's saying them to a "bad guy" who SO deserves it. Like the thief stealing designer wedding gowns from San Antonio bridal boutiques.
Andie is an undercover bride about to make an arrest when Detective Bruce Benton barges onto the scene. The suspect escapes, and, as a reward for this screw-up, Benton and Andie are paired together as partners to close the case.
On the surface, this mismatched duo appear to have only one thing in common: their tendency to annoy each other. Underneath though, desire sizzles. Is it just a matter of time before these two commitment-phobic cops yield to the inevitable?
Cinderella Blue, Book 2, San Antone Two-Step, by Joan Reeves, Bestselling Author of Contemporary Romance.
Previously print published, this ebook edition contains a Linked Table of Contents; a Note from the Author; Joan's Book List; Excerpt from Nobody's Cinderella, Book 1 of San Antone Two-Step; Excerpt, April Fool Bride; and a Quotation Collection: Things Cops Say.
