A Hire LoveIn Candice Dow's witty, sexy novel, a young woman finds that tragic beginnings can lead to happy endings--with a few surprises along the way. . . Fatima Mayo had it all--a gorgeous, loving husband; a creative job as a romance editor; and a fabulous home in New York City. Then her husband died suddenly of a heart attack. Now, after three years on her own, she's decided to plunge back into the dating pool. But when dating services leave her high and dry, her friend Mya jokes that Fatima will only find the perfect guy if she writes a script and hires an actor to play the role. . . and Fatima agrees. She will write a script--and Mya, a casting director, will find the leading man. Good-looking, intelligent, and talented, Rashad Watkins fits the bill. But he soon realizes that while the money Fatima offers is good--her companionship is even better. What he feels for Fatima is the real thing. The hard part will be proving he's not acting. . . |
