"A fun book full of quirky characters!"

Abigail Jenson, author of the best selling sex manual for married couples, UNDER THE COVERS, is living a lie. Just as her book hits the stores, her supposed husband sends her a 'Dear John' letter telling her he's run off with his lover, Tony. She also finds out that her marriage was a sham in the first place. Tony isn't ordained to performed marriages. What's a woman to do?

Abby's publicist makes her go on talk shows and a book tour so her well-meaning sisters hire a hunk of a man to play Lenny, her husband. Little do they know that they've hired Hunter Stone, newspaper reporter for The Atlanta Journal. Hunter thinks Abby and her book have broken up his marriage so he's out for revenge. What will Hunter do when he finds out more about Abby? Believe me, there's much more to the story than he even knows. What will Abby do when she finds out that Hunter is deceiving her big time, especially when things really start heating up between them? Add Hunter's darling five year old daughter Lizzie to the mix along with Abby's dog Butterball and Lizzie's ugly mixed breed mutt, Snarts (oh, is there a story to that name!) and you come up with a book that's a lot of fun to read and quite hard to put down.

I've been a long time fan of Rita Herron's and think that she just gets better and better with each succeeding book! I can't wait to see what she comes up with next! This book is full of quirky characters like Abby's two sisters, her parents and her Granny Pearl. I am hoping that Rita will tell us stories about Abby's sisters in short order!
