“Readers are going to love this!” exclaimed Susan Elizabeth Phillips about Good Girls Do. Now Cathie Linz delivers her delightful follow-up novel. When Skye Wright saw flashing lights in her rearview mirror, she figured she’d just charm her way out of yet another speeding ticket. How could she have known that the handsome cop who stepped out of the police cruiser was a Studly Do-Right capable of taming the wild child right out of her? It took less than two seconds for Sheriff Nathan Thornton to peg the sexy Skye as trouble. Maybe it was the way she shimmied her hips in that I Dream of Jeannie outfit.

Now if only she’d belly-dance into his bedroom… Good Girls Do is: “Fabulously fun.”—Booklist (starred review) “Hilarious and heartwarming.”—Library Journal
