This was cute, fun, and well written. I've read some of Layne's other books and always like some more than others and I'm not sure how to predict that. In general I've found the Stiletto women annoying --kind of shallow and stereotypical. But there are exceptions and Penelope is one of them. She's a really refreshing heroine -- a sportswriter comfortable with guys and not just obsessed with finding a man. Cole is a good foil for her because he turns out to be more real, more down to earth than he seems--and he ends up really seeing her. Overall, a good read by a pro.
