As a special feature during the month of February, I'm highlighting romance novels I've heard about. While I haven't read this one yet, it sounds excellent. Not only that, it came in Fourth in the Romance category in a recent
Preditors and Editors poll. Here, author Morgan Mandel talks about
Girl of My Dreams and why she wrote it:
After my dark romantic suspense,
Two Wrongs, I needed to change gears and get light. That's when I hit on the idea of my romantic comedy,
Girl of My Dreams.
What woman doesn't like a good makeover? When Jillian, the straitlaced temp to Blake, the producer of a reality show, gets the glam treatment and enters his television contest, the change does not set well with her boss.
Suddenly she's not the dependable gofer he thought she was, but a beautiful woman, way too similar to his conniving movie-star mother. Can Jillian convince Blake she has his best interests at heart? She has to because her love for him is at stake.
