Best Laid Plans (Electronic book text, Ebook Original)

Raven-haired anchorwoman Violet Gallagher is a planner and a plotter, not a dreamer. She reads self-help books, not fairy tales; keeps a five-year plan, not a journal. But when she catches the eye of a handsome stranger across the room at a party given in her honor, it suddenly feels like a very enchanted evening.

Jake Macintyre, globe-trotting photojournalist and Prince Charming look-alike, is as impulsive as Violet is cautious. Although he knows the unexpected interlude with his dream-girl from the nightly news is ill-timed, his motto is OC seize the momentOCoand the girl OCO

So, with no fairy godmother to impose a curfew, Violet allows Jake to escort her home after midnight, where she loses more than just her dancing shoes. The next morning, however, she discovers he isnOCOt the sort of Prince who hangs around the castle, but the adventurous kind who slays dragons, pursues grails, and embarks on quests. Or, as he explains it, heOCOs about to begin a year-long assignment in a distant foreign country.

VioletOCOs fairy tale, alas, will have no OC happily ever after.OCO

Or will it?

This isnOCOt OC The End, OCO but only the first chapter of a timeless love story . . .
