Summary: Bad boy gets good girl = entertaining read!
Comment: Tough guy, Master Sergeant Zachariah Taylor, and Marilyn Monroe look alike Lily Morrisette. Whoever would have thought a relationship would work between the chef and big, bad Marine, but hey, stranger things have happened. Zach figures Lily for another in a long line of cons trying to trick his naïve sister out of the family fortune, when in fact sis Glynnis and Lily have forged a lasting friendship. Zack goes from rude and nasty to downright mean when he finds out Lily has a fiancé, and has left to head North to meet his family, figuring David is out for her money too. When Zach decides it's time to follow Glynnis and rescue her from the gold digger, Lily goes along for the ride, knowing Glynnis and David truly love each other and Glynnis might need her help convincing Zach of the truth.
Lily and Zach's road trip is nothing short of amazing. The humor Susan Andersen interjects, and outrageous cast of secondary characters make it possible to overlook Zach's nasty attitude. Add in extortion, kidnapping, and of course Zach's macho Marine buddies who come to lend a hand, steamy sex and loveable Lily, and you have another Susan Andersen classic. This is a light and humorous read, one to just sit back and enjoy!

Summary: Surly Marine meets voluptuous girly-girl who's so much more
Comment: This is my first Susan Andersen book and I did enjoy it. I especially liked Lily's character. She's a firecracker! Zach was handsome and sexy but a bit too surly for a bit too long to make his romantic interest in Lily entirely believable (the main complaint with this book).
Zach Taylor has come home on leave to find blonde bombshell Lily Morrisette living in his house - sleeping in his bedroom! He immediately assumes she's yet another leach hanging around with his baby sister Glynnis to sponge off of her and her money. He is rude and nasty to Lily demanding to know where his sister has gone and with whom. Well an attitude like that will get you nowhere with Lily!
Lily has been renting a room from Glynnis and the two women have become friends. Glynnis has just become engaged to David and they've taken a trip to Washington to meet his family. Lily likes David and feels the two of them deserve to be happy without GI Joe storming after them to ruin it all, so when Zach is determined to follow, she's just as determined to come along!
The ensuing road trip is a wild ride with Zach and Lily bickering and covertly checking each other out (with growing interest) by turns. By the time they get to their destination, they are definitely softening toward each other. But what they find there is not good - it seems Glynnie and David have been kidnapped! And what Lily and Zach don't know is that they've been followed the whole trip by a Colombian national with a grudge against Zach.
While many will dislike Zach, I was okay with him (bark worse than bite kind of thing). And Lily brings him to his knees eventually anyway (literally). I thought I was going to hate Lily, but she was a hoot - no dumb blonde pushover here! The kidnapping and Colombian subplots are more light suspense than anything that will have you on the edge of your seat and I think that's intentional. Not a great book, but a fun way to pass the time and some steamy chemistry between Zach and Lily. Recommended.
