A Novel Seduction

Description for A NOVEL SEDUCTION by Gwyn Cready:

When snobbish book critic Ellery Sharpe screws up at Vanity Place magazine, her boss assigns her the ultimate punishment: write an ode to romance novels, a genre she considers the literary equivalent of word search puzzles. To make matters worse, he hires her former party-boy ex, Axel Mackenzie, to shoot the photos. Axel knows the magazine will double his fee if he convinces strong-willed Ellery to make the story positive. But getting Ellery to fall for romance novels might be just the push she needs to believe people can change . . . even him. At his sister's advice, Axel gives Ellery a copy of Kiltlander, a much-adored romance whose warrior hero is utterly irresistible. To her dismay, Ellery finds herself secretly falling in love with the story -- and with Axel, who's drawing his own lessons from the book's compelling hero. With her carefully crafted image crumbling and her dream job on the line, will Ellery risk it all to make the leap from tight-lipped literati to happily-ever-after heroine?
