  <default-description>&lt;B&gt;Lucy Savage is not having a good week.&lt;/B&gt;  &lt;P&gt;Her cheating husband, Bradley, lobbed the final insult when he stood her up in divorce court. A dye job gone wrong has left her hair green. And someone is trying to kill her. To top it off, sexy cop Zack Warren is certain the very same man Lucy is trying to wash right out of her hair is the same Bradley he wants to arrest for embezzlement.  &lt;P&gt;When someone shoots at her and then her car blows up, Zack decides she needs twenty-four-hour police protection. Next thing Lucy knows, Zack has moved in to her big Victorian house, making them both sleepless . . . and not just from things that go bump in the night!</default-description>

Originally published as a Harlequin Blaze in 1994, this story is one of her earlier ones.

    <body><![CDATA[Wonderful hero and heroine and excellent supporting characters.  It reads like a slapstick comedy but not silly and ha ha funny.  Normal formaula: big bad cop meets poor little woman, series of unfortunate events continue to throw them together and love blooms quickly.  Oh yeah, the bad guys are rea...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/46163454">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is the first book I've read by Jennifer Cruise. Will I remember it? Nope. Did I enjoy it at the time? Yep. <br/><br/>Cruise writes like her computer is on fire. The dialogue is fast, furious, and often pretty funny. I'm a fast reader, but I couldn't believe how quickly I was loping through th...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/52455040">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was a fun novel, and I have no complaints.  There are other novels by Crusie that I have liked better, and others I have liked less.  The characters were fun, the story flowed, and the secondary mystery plot was interesting.<br/><br/>The only complaints about this novel were plausibility issu...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/70082907">more...</a>]]></body>

It wasn't spectacular, but I did manage to finish it pretty fast, so it wasn't too bad either.<br/><br/>High school physics teacher Lucy is ridding herself of her cheating husband, Bradley, and moving on with her life.

    <body><![CDATA[So I actually quite enjoyed this book!  Super fast read, with a tiny bit of mystery and of course, comedy &amp; romance...but quite clean, compared to a lot in this genre.  Matt mocked me yesterday and told me to stop picking up books with bright covers (my edition is bright yellow). Oh well, I enjoyed ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/38315992">more...</a>]]></body>

Not too deep, light-hearted with a splash of drama and intrigue (but not too much).
