description:  They're pretending. Until they aren't.Thomas McKinney has never wanted a woman the way he wants Callie Adesso. Since she started working alongside him at the Colonial Marysburg Research Library he's spent his desk shifts fumbling pencils tripping over his own feet and struggling to remember both the Dewey Decimal System and the existence of her inconvenient boyfriend. Now however Callie is suddenly single--and in need of a last-minute faux-boyfriend for an episode of HATV's Island Match. Thomas is more than happy to play the part...and in the process convince Callie that a week together isn't nearly long enough.Callie has never found a man as irritating as she finds Thomas. He may be brilliant kind and frustratingly handsome but the absent-minded librarian also makes every workday an anxiety-inducing exercise in stress. Even seven days in paradise by his side won't change her opinion of him. Really. No matter how attentive he is. And gentle. And sexy.One plane ride later the two of them are spending long hot days under the sun and on display pretending to be in love for a television show. This may be a vacation but it's also an act--as well as Thomas's last chance to persuade the woman of his dreams to include him in hers. And soon the island heat isn't the only thing steaming up HATV's cameras...
