A reality TV producer walks into a dive bar...and discovers her next hit show. And then some.
Victoria Clausen recognizes star power when she sees it, and knows how to elevate people to celebrity status. Luke Tyler and his country western band are the next big thing and she will do anything to land a deal with them, including line dancing and ignoring her own feelings.
Luke knew the second that producer walked backstage like she owned the place: she was trouble. He just wants to make music. And he wants success on his own terms. Not because of his famous father and not from a bossy TV producer in her buttoned-up power suits. But the band wants the show?and he wants Victoria?so he reluctantly agrees.
Victoria is determined to make this show succeed and gain the respect of her male peers. Nothing will stop her: not her free-spirit sister showing up from out of town to stay for "just awhile." Or her assistant quitting. Or the worry that Luke is pursuing her to purposely sabotage the show. He knows they'd both get fired if they got involved.
Yet whenever they're in the same room, the ground around them gets scorched from their attraction, and no one else matters, including the co-worker Victoria has started dating because she believes he's more appropriate for her than that alpha male cowboy. It's too bad the co-worker kisses like he's spitting watermelon seeds. While Luke kisses like he's ready to throw her over his shoulder and?
Despite the cameras running 24/7, Luke and Victoria find themselves increasingly drawn to each other. As they grow close, Victoria is faced with an impossible decision: lose the job that defines her, or break Luke's heart?and her own.

Autorentext
At the age of 11, I wrote my first book, about orphaned animals with names like "Bob Katt" and "Chip Monk." My parents took the original typed manuscript and had it bound into a book. I don't think I've stopped writing since.
I majored in Creative Writing at San Francisco State University and wrote a personal column for a quarterly newsletter focusing on the entertainment industry for four years. My "That's Entertainment" series combines my love of pop culture with a story that takes the reader to another world for a few hours.
Although my day job as a non-profit fundraiser requires database geekery, I find writing a great deal more fun. Both my characters and I know that a pair of colorful cowboy boots can change your life. Plus, life is better with a little romance.

Hot shot reality TV producer Victoria Clausen loves only one thing: creating hit shows. Luke Tyler's main goal in life is to reach country music stardom away from the shadow of his famous--and notorious--father.
When Victoria convinces Luke that his band would make a great subject for a reality TV series, he reluctantly agrees. The cameras are everywhere as filming begins, and they both learn that reality can be both deceptive and more desirable.
