Binding: Mass Market PaperbackDewey Decimal Number: 813 EAN: 9780380807123 Edition: Reprint ISBN: 0380807122 Label: Avon Manufacturer: Avon Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 384 Publication Date: May 01, 2000 Publisher: Avon Release Date: May 02, 2000 Studio: Avon Editorial Review: Amazon.com Review: Setting: San Francisco Sensuality: 8 Security expert Daisy Parker once spent an unforgettable night of passion with society photographer Nick Coltrane, but he disappeared the next morning, taking her heart with him. It's nine years later when Nick walks back into Daisy's life to hire her services as a bodyguard. Daisy's still angry at him, but she really needs the money, so she takes the job and moves in with Nick to protect him 24 hours a day. Unfortunately for Daisy, Nick hasn't told her quite all the truth about the trouble he's in and protecting him from thugs gets really complicated, really fast. But keeping Nick alive and healthy pales in comparison to the difficulty Daisy has with guarding her heart from him. Beneath her justifiable anger, she's as attracted to Nick as she was nine years before and Nick shows all the signs of wanting her just as badly. If these two can manage to stay alive, will Nick find a way to convince Daisy that this time their future includes marriage and happy ever after? Baby, Don't Go is a fast train of suspense, comedy, lust, and love. The heroine's tough-as-nails outer shell conceals a vulnerable interior that the hero, macho though he is, understands perfectly. No one does romantic comedy with a twist of suspense quite like Andersen. --Lois Faye Dyer Product Description: Rule One: Don't Let Him In When photographer Nick Coltrane saunters into Daisy Parker's office, all she sees is the man who broke her heart nine years ago. Never mind that he wants to hire her as his bodyguard -- ah, security specialist -- or that her fledgling company desperately needs the cash flow. She'd once broken her own rules, only to watch his sexy self go running for the door. Providing round-the-clock protection for him now is out of the question ... right? Rule Two: Always Be Able To Walk Away Nick needs Daisy around to keep the hired thugs that are out for his blood from actually getting it. If he can make amends for the way he screwed up nine years ago in the process, then so much the better. Except time has done nothing to dull the memory of how Daisy once rocked his world off its axis and her cocky attitude and mouthwatering curves still have the power to turn his brain to mush. Well, that doesn't mean Nick can't handle living hand-in-glove with the one woman he's been obsessed with for years. Yeah. Sure he can. Some Rules Were Made To be Broken In the city by the bay, two people who once were friends and used to be lovers will discover if love and trust can come from a passion that breaks every rule. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - One of my favorites by this author!Daisy's mom was married to Nick's dad for a short time many years ago. At his sister's wedding, nine years ago, Nick took Daisy's virginity. When he suspected his feelings might be a lot deeper than he would have liked, he got scared and bolted (OK, definitely was a jerk!) During those nine years Daisy became a cop, then started her own security business while Nick became a famous photographer. One day Nick shows up wanting Daisy's protection from someone trying to kill him because ... Read More Rating: - A Great Read!Loved this book! Quite Steamy! It was a quick read, very entertaining. The pages kept turning quickly. There were many thrilling, explicit sex scenes. Loved them! The first of many books I hope to read by Susan Andersen. Rating:  - couldn't even finish it...I guess someday I might go back and pick this one up again but as far as today goes...I just couldn't find the energy to finish it... This is a story about Daisy...a young teenage girl whom gave herself and her virginity to Nick ....an older hunk and a photographer....who walks out on her...Now Nick walks back into Daisy's life after a nine year absence and hires her services as a bodyguard. He has taken a scandlous photo of some senator guy and these goons are out to find that film!!! ... Read More Rating:  - Was this supposed to seem like a cartoon?I want to start off by saying that Susan Andersen is on my automatic buy list, so even if the book description sounds kind of silly, I still expect Ms. Andersen to make it work. I cannot explain how disappointed I was in this book. It was so unrealistic that at times I was picturing cartoon characters. I've read almost everything of hers that I can get my hands on. Some of her other books I have given 5 stars (books like Obsession or All Shook Up). The only reason that I gave this book even 1 star ... Read More Rating: - DisappointingThis is my first Susan Andersen book and I got it because she seems to be on everybody's must-read list, and I'd heard so much about how great her books are. One reviewer even said that Andersen's writings reminded her of Susan Elizabeth Phillips'. So with that in mind I rented this book. But I have to say, this book does not even begin to live up to its hype. The characters are unlikeable and lack depth, the dialogue uninteresting and getting through those first few chapters was such a bore until I finally ... Read More |
