"Enjoyable contemporary romance"

Katie Collins hides her beautiful body beneath the guise of a prim and proper lady because she wants no trouble with the spouse of her boss Ivan Rasmussin. When the computer game CEO offers Katie a chance to make one hundred thousand dollars, she jumps at the opportunity because she needs money to reunite with her three siblings, each from a different father. Ivan wants Katie to find a husband who passes his criteria for his shy obese daughter Wilhelmina.

Ivan bribes security expert Michael Wingate to serve as bodyguard to Wilhelmina while he vacations overseas and to conduct background checks into the men that Katie selects. Michael reluctantly agrees because he expects to take over security for Ivan's firm if he holds up his end of the bargain.

When Katie tells Wilhelmina of a fairy tale in which the princess finds true love in Texas, the heiress eludes her two watchdogs and journeys to the Lone Star State. As Katie and Michael follow, they fall in love even as Wilhelmina meets her prince, but will these two deserving couples find permanent happiness with one another?

SOME GIRLS DO is an enjoyable contemporary romance starring several delightful characters. The story line focuses on two lonely women who find love when neither expected anything. The support cast augments how deep the audience sees inside Wilhelmina and Katie. Though the males in her father's circle are too nasty for consideration, fans can bank on this author providing a wonderful tale of love.

Summary

"You want me to find a husband for your daughter?" As personal assistant to the rich and eccentric, Katie Collins thought she'd heard it all. Now to keep her job she has to play matchmaker for her boss's only child. With her shapeless clothes and prim appearance, Katie has not had much experience with the opposite sex. That doesn't stop her from trying to turn shy Wilhemina into a swan. Or from dragging reluctant bodyguard Michael Wingate to Texas, where their lovelorn heiress has run off to lasso herself a cowboy.

Working with Michael becomes more dangerous than Katie bargained for. He is exactly the kind of control freak she despises -- and so hot he melts her plain-Jane defenses faster than a desert sunrise. Of course, falling in love with the man is out of the question. But just once Katie Collins wants to be a little naughty, to discover why all good girls sometimes want to be bad!
