Pretenses Abound!

Give me the author name, the title, and the character name, and guess what you’ll get! No, really, guess!

Business-savvy widow, hiding out in the typing pool, seeks hot studly bo-jillionaire to lie to me and whisk me off to stand in a wedding. All that nuptial romance should lead to a little hot naked snake action, which in turn brings declarations of lifelong commitment, without either party coming clean about our true intentions. Now if that’s not the foundation of a trusting loving relationship, I don’t know what is.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe this is talking about Karen Lawrence from “Just Curious” a short story by Jude Deveraux in the anthology “A Gift of Love.”

(I am in total Love with this website, by the way- you guys are my heroes)

Is the character Tyler Stevens from Jude Devereaux’s “Unfinished Business”?

I LOVE this story. I know it’s an oldie, but I still enjoy re-reading it. The taggin on the elevator/bathroom wall is teh funny!

I’m throwing this out there even though I am sure there wasn’t a wedding in sight.

Judith McNaught’s Double Standards, Heroine - Lauren Danner

THEN someone mentions a wall bathroom scene and I’m all

Linda Howard’s Shades of Twilight Roanna Davenport.

Crap, I’m never gonna get one of these.

Sara’s got it, I believe.  It’s one of many in Jude’s famous “marry the one that can tell the twins apart’ schtick.  He was a Taggert, yes?

Jude Deveraux, Just Curious,  Karen Lawrence.

Sara has got it - good job! Sorry I disappeared for a few hours. What an evening!

But yes, that is correct.
