author: Scott, Barbara
description: It's love at first sight for Max Dawson when Night Beat reporter Kari Bryan interviews him at the site of a foiled robbery.
  He is hailed as a hero and their chemistry becomes the talk of the town. It's not long before Max blurts out a proposal and Kari impulsively accepts on live TV.
  Seizing the opportunity of their overnight celebrity, a local station features them as their annual wedding couple and Max illustrates their story in his popular comic strip, King of Her Jungle.
  Will their first flush of love endure or will it whither under the glare of the spotlight?
