I've read this author's historical romances, but this is the first contemporary romance of hers that I have read. I am happy to find that she is just as talented in this genre as in the other. This was a fun book to read, the interplay between the two main characters is excellent and funny. Ethan is always charming and Mackenzie is the only woman he's met that gives back as good as she gets and is immune to his charm. The story is well written and interesting with a strong female lead, which I have appreciated in this author's other books.Ethan is the boss and runs the New York office, but Makenzie is the top salesman  in the company and runs the LA office.  When his ex girlfriends start selling bogus stories to the tabloids and then the tabloids print misleading pictures of Ethan and Mackenzie at the company softball game,  he needs a break. He asks Mackenzie to pretend to be his fiance for a few weeks to distract the tabloids and give him some breathing room. They negotiate a hefty price and she uses her vacation time to spend six weeks with him. His mother hates her, she's struggling with their attraction to each other, and trying to keep from actually falling for this charming man who has always been able to get what he wants.Heat factor hot.
