Angelle Prejean lifts the " I made up a fiancee " storyline to a new level.  Angelle turned down the man she has waited for years.  She has been the perfect daughter and girlfriend.  The Good Doctor was about to do his residency and proposed in front of everyone.  She said no and ran to a small town close to New Orleans.  She finally became a volunteer fireman and worked with horses and kept her past a secret.  She had a major crush on her room mate's brother, Cane Robicheaux.  He runs a restaurant and works the bar drawing lots of women to his body ink and bad boy one night stands.  He has a thing for Angelle as well, but she is to shy and to nice a girl for him to date.  His sister takes over the town's fundraiser for buying Christmas toys for the poor by having a bachelor auction.  When Angelle is talked into helping, she has no idea what she is getting into and after a few hurricanes, she is feeling no pain.  Cane is voted Mr. Abs and he is the last to be auctioned.  He is being fought over by a brunette and a stalker ex and as he is going for the third time, Angelle raises the bid to $1500 and his sister says sold!!!Cane is relieved and wants to know about the date.  Angelle fights her hangover to go and explain the embarrassing situation she has gotten herself in.  Cane eventually agrees to go home with her for a week at Thanksgiving as her pretend fiancee.  This book is full of the life of a rural Creole Cajun family and that attention to detail and the great writing lift this book to a higher level.  How does a bad boy survive a whole town who is on the good doctor's team and not his?  What happens when he finds himself in too deep?  This is a good read with great secondary characters.  Enjoy!
