Always a Joy!!
I love Carly Phillips books. She has a great knack for telling a story and her tales are always original. She develops great characters (sexy and human) and her books are always funny and yet she is able to convince you that they are real life. Her supporting characters are always great and you will not be anxious to put one of her books down. While I mantain a library of books to read Carly Phillips books are never on the shelf. I read them as soon as they arrive. I recommend this author to all. Whatever your preference you will find it in her stories.

heated holiday romance
When reporter Colin Lyons learns that his beloved adoptive father suffered a stroke, he takes a leave of absence from his South American assignment to return to his Massachusetts hometown to run Joe¿s labor of love, Ashford Times. However, Colin learns that his mentor assigned his second wife to run the newspaper. She has converted the focus into fluff while the paper is now losing money. Colin plans to eliminate the bubbles by bringing serious news back as the prime theme of the paper and consequently out of the red. Colin realizes that he finds one of the new hires, advice columnist Rina Lowell, SIMPLY SEXY. Though he tries to avoid her, she turns the heat up, as she wants her boss by her side permanently. He cannot resist her and decides a holiday fling is just the thing, but as he falls in love he wonders how she will react to his New Year¿s Resolution to fire the frivolous, which includes her. Like Rina¿s column, SIMPLY SEXY is mostly fluff, but anyone looking for an amusing good time will join this reviewer and declare so what. Instead, the audience receives a humorous tale with some serious undertones involving coping with loss and the state of small town newspapers. The key to this novel, as with the previous ¿Simply¿ tales (being reprinted starting in April), is the two delightful protagonists, who struggle between professional desires, fears of commitment, and a growing love for one another. Readers will enjoy Carly Phillips¿ that contains much merriment with just the right dab of solemnity. Harriet Klausner
