"It's steamy, it's poignant, it's perfectly paced—it's When Lightning Strikes and you don't want to miss it!"— USA TODAY Welcome to Whiskey Creek—Heart of the Gold Country Gail DeMarco left Whiskey Creek, California, to make a name for herself in Los Angeles. Her PR firm has accumulated a roster of A-list clients, including the biggest box office hit of all—sexy and unpredictable Simon O'Neal. But Simon, who's just been through a turbulent divorce, is so busy self-destructing he won't listen to anything she says. She drops him from her list—and he retaliates by taking the rest of her clients with him. Desperate to save her company, Gail has to humble herself by making a deal with Simon. The one thing he wants is custody of his son, but that's going to require a whole new image. He needs to marry some squeaky-clean girl who'll drag him off to some small, obscure place like Whiskey Creek.... Gail's the only one he can trust. She agrees to become his wife—reluctantly. She isn't reluctant because he's too hard to like...but because he's too hard not to love. Previously published. (less)
