Cara Byrne adheres to the creed that hard work and good behavior pays off and she has a sedate safe life with a forthcoming proposal from a trustworthy man. When her childhood friend Ethan Quinn sees Cara's "fiance" kissing another woman in a bar he decks him and has to give Cara the dreaded news.  A comical situation of extracting Cara from a Pooh Bear costume where she was helping out at a charity event puts the two of them on the tabloids looking like they are locked in a heated clench since Cara only had her bra/underwear on in the costume. Once the media converges on Cara and in the process she loses her teaching job Ethan is obligated to rescue her and bring her to hide our at his beach house.  I liked their natural interaction and how the relationship progressed with Ethan finally figuring out Cara could be sexy in her own right and a friend too. Womanizing didn't appeal to him and Cara thought it would just be an affair until she realizes she loves him too. A sweet love story that progresses nicely and a quick summer read.
