Larissa Owens loves Fool's Gold, CA; her job at the sports PR firm, Score; her multiple rescue causes; and her Ragdoll cat, Dyna. She definitely doesn't love her boss, ex-football star Jack McGarry, no matter what her mother says. Jack doesn't love her, either. They are best friends, depend on each other, and work perfectly together. Love would ruin everything, on that they absolutely agree. Then why are things suddenly different between them? VERDICT With her classic blend of lighthearted humor, intense emotional conflict, and a setting so real and appealing readers will want to start scoping out real estate, Mallery spins a masterly tale of two wary people afraid to risk their friendship for love. This is the third installment in the second back-to-back trilogy that is part of Mallery's wonderfully detailed "Fool's Gold" world.
