To Catch a Lorelei
Houseman, Phyllis
JUST A PRETTY FACE

When she saw the gorgeous, bronze-skinned hunk posing in the ad for Anytime Jeans, Lorelei Hunt couldn't help herself. The powerful message in Daniel Logan's eyes prompted her to pick up a pen and write the first fan letter of her life. Although the letter was warm, funny, even poetic, she never expected Logan's agent to call her with a publicity stunt. He wanted ordinary, unknown Lorelei to go on a well-publicized dream date with the one and only Daniel Logan.

Despite Lorelei's refusals, the agent persisted. He even drove down to her exotic plant nursery in San Diego, arriving just as an overhead sprinkler broke down. Drenched with water, stinking of fertilizer, and squinting behind her old glasses, Lorelei was not looking her best. With one critical glance, the agent tried to call off the date. But Lorelei decided not to let Daniel Logan--or his agent--off the hook. She would go on the date and show Logan that true beauty involved more than a few curves and a pretty face.

From the moment Lorelei met Daniel Logan in the flesh, she knew her plan was doomed. The man wasn't just masculine perfection; he was a compassionate, sensitive guy, too. He looked past her horn-rimmed glasses and preposterous makeup to the woman inside, the real Lorelei. Dazzled by his kiss, stirred by his tender touch, Lorelei wondered if Daniel would ever forgive her for trying to trick him.
