Madcap romp. If you like Susan Anderson, or the Bubbles Unbound series, you'll like this book. What happens when stuck in a rut Jane gets a chance to go "undercover"? Strong ethics and common sense only take a girl so far... A fun beach read.

Good girl Jane Preston is getting ready for her annual July ritual. The one where she packs up the insect repellent and binoculars and heads off to the mountains... with her parents. It's not exactly a scintillating prospect, so when her madcap cousin Molly bursts into her office, with a crazy scheme, Jane's like putty in her hands. Silly Putty that's been out in the sun too long...
It seems that Molly's up for a promotion or a firing at her newspaper job if she doesn't get an impressive scoop immediately. Enter Jane, agreeing to take Molly's place at a beachfront retreat for bigshots who might recognize Molly from her disastrous stint as a Washington intern. Jane gains admittance on the arm of an insufferably nerdy reporter named John Patrick Romanowski. What she doesn't know is that her "escort" is none other than bestselling author J.P. Roman, going incognito to get ideas for his next novel. Before long, Jane's up to her neck in more than sand. But just as she begins to see something special behind J.P.'s disguise, she stumbles across a story that could make her sizzling summer adventure too hot to handle...

You must get This Can't be love along with this book, because it is about two cousins who act more like sisters than cousins. I loved both of these book and you will love them. They are funny.

I bought this book, assuming since it was published in 2003 that I hadn't read it. Once I got home and looked more carefully, I realized that I had read this book and really enjoyed it. Yes, a lot of the plot is cliche, but it is handled in a very fresh and funny manner. I think this book will be sent out soon, but I may just read it again right now!
