I like McCarthy's books, so maybe I'm a little biased. She writes well and the loves scenes are fabulous. This is not earth-shattering stuff and no brain required. The plots are usually a bit thin, but the characters are likeable and the story flows well. If your looking for a deep and emotional read, try McNaught instead. You won't cry or be cursing the characters in a McCarthy book, just some good romantic fluff.
Its basically about an FBI agent, Derek Knight, who loses crucial evidence in a federal drug price fixing case to low time reporter Reese Hampton. Reese knows a good story when she sees one and won't let studly Derek out of her sight until she gets the full exclusive that'll lead to a career break. Derek can't mess up on this mission, his career is at stake too. The too butt heads and warm the sheets as they search for more evidence.
A great romance between two A-type personalities. If you liked any of McCarthy's anthologies or her other books, you'll like this one too. Mouth to Mouth is good too.
Note: Derek's sister, Clair is featured in The Night Before Christmas anthology -recommended and Derek's FBI partners Maddock and CJ have their own story in Bad Boys in Black Tie anotholgy -Highy Recommmended.

This book is terrible!! I threw it away and I never do that but this book only deserves the trash bin. I liked Ms. McCarthy's other books but this one had no plot at all and did not make me care about any of the characters.

This was another worthwhile read from this author. The story was a little more in depth than her other books. As usual, interesting characters, lots of laughs and a whole lot of sex.
The author has quite an imagination!

This is the first book I have read by this author. While amusing at times, the plot is very thin. Read something by Rachel Gibson instead.

This book has been sitting on my shelf for several months. I finally found time to pick up reading for more than 10 minutes at a time and pulled this one off of my shelf. Boy am I glad that I did...it's just such a fun read. I was hooked from the moment I opened it and didn't lose that until I read the last word. I was telling a friend that it was one of the hottest books I've read in a really long time. If you have a special someone...prepare them ahead of reading this book because they will want some advance warning of what it could do to you. I enjoyed the kind of woman that Reese is and the kind of man she makes Derek be when they are together. It's a great beach, plane, and anywhere read.
