WELL HUNG
Here's what you need to know about me -- I'm well-off, well-hung and quick with a joke. Women like a guy who makes them laugh. Even better if he's loyal and hard-working. That's me.
* * *
Enter Natalie. Hot, sexy, smart, and my new assistant. Which makes her totally off limits...
* * *
Hey, I'm a good guy. Really. I do my best to stay far away from the kind of temptation she brings to work. Until one night in Vegas...
* * *
Yeah, you've heard this one before. Bad news on the business front, drowning our sorrows in a few too many Harvey Wallbangers, and then I'm banging her. In my hotel room. In her hotel room. Behind the Titanic slot machine at the Flamingo (don't ask). And before I can make her say "Oh God right there YES!" one more time, we're both saying yes--the big yes--at a roadside chapel in front of a guy in press-on sideburns and a shiny gold leisure suit.
* * *
We'll just untie the knot in the morning, right?
* * *
The trouble is . . . I don't know how to keep my hands off my soon-to-be ex-wife.
* * *
WELL HUNG is available everywhere!

I’m grateful to Lauren McKellar for all she sees. I owe so much to my early readers — Jen, Dena and Kim played such key roles in shaping this story and making Max and Henley’s love story crackle and shine. Karen, Tiffany, Janice, Virginia and Marion provided eagle eyes, and I appreciate them immensely.

Thank you to my husband for believing in my books, making great sandwiches and telling jokes. My children are the loves of my life, and they make me happy every day. And so do my dogs.

Last, but never least, a big, huge thank you to all my readers. You make my dreams possible, and you’ve made them come true. I hope you’ve enjoyed Joy Ride as much as I enjoyed writing it for you.
