Synopsis:
Something about Paige's life dissatisfies her, and she's not sure what it is. Mae, her best friend, is marrying Clint, and it's a huge shock for Paige. She had thought Mae, like her, didn't believe in love and lasting marriages. After all, they'd both grown up seeing how miserable their parents were. Paige's father, a famous cricket player, had cheated on her mother while her mother turned a blind eye until it was no longer possible to do so.
Still, Mae seems happy, so Paige goes with her to shop for things for the wedding. No one is more shocked than Paige when Paige buys a wedding dress of her very own. She's not sure why she did it, but something about the dress called to her. Unfortunately, she still has it in her hands when she meets Gabe.
The chemistry between Paige and Gabe is intense, but neither one of them is interested in anything more than no-strings-attached sex. Gabe flat out says that he doesn't plan to be in Australia long, and Paige is perfectly happy to hear that. But what happens when the two of them start to grow closer than they planned?
Review:
I've seen several Harlequin Kiss books at my local Walmart and read the descriptions on most of them, but this was the first one to appeal to me enough for me to buy it. A heroine who bought a wedding dress despite not even having a boyfriend. A hero who was only interested in no-strings-attached sex. I wanted to see how things would go between them. Unfortunately, this book didn't work for me.
