From the terrifically entertaining ("Booklist") "New York Times"-bestselling author of "Natural Born Charmer" and "Match Me If You Can" comes another wonderfully whimsical modern fairy tale sure to touch fans' hearts and funny bones. Distributed by Syndetic Solutions, Inc.

Starred Review. Phillips (It Had to Be You) makes old Hollywood gossip new again in this over-the-top, hot-under-the-sheets rom-com. Sitcom Skip and Scooter co-stars Georgie York, who like her character exudes spunky charm, and Bram Shepard, whose upbringing couldn't be more different from the nice boy he plays, hate each other even before Bram's offscreen sexual escapades lead to the sitcom's cancellation. Flash forward eight years: his career has cratered, and her biggest accomplishment has been briefly marrying hunky star Lance Marks, who abandons her for sex-goddess-turned-international-do-gooder Jade Gentry. So when Bram and Georgie wake up from a Vegas bender and find themselves married to each other, they make the most of it: Georgie aims to undo the damage Lance has done to her heart and her public image, while Bram is gunning for a second chance at life, love and stardom. It's a blast to watch the hate-each-other-yet-made-for-each-other couple as they duck paparazzi or spar before falling into bed. In this massively entertaining romp, redemption is always possible, and even a fake Hollywood couple trapped in a pretend marriage might find true love. (Feb.)

Georgie York and Bramwell Shepard have a long history. They were costars for eight years on an extremely popular teen sitcom, Skip and Scooter. Georgie played Scooter, a spunky orphan needing lots of looking after by Bram's boy-next-door character, Skip. But Bram's real-life bad-boy escapades caused the show to be canceled. Eight years later, the only thing they share is mutual dislike. Yet one drug-spiked drink in Vegas and one valid marriage certificate later, Georgie and Bram find themselves hitched, with their own reasons for wanting to make the sham seem real. Georgie is tired of being tabloid fodder thanks to a bad divorce, and Bram needs Georgie's sterling reputation to reignite his career. But will their acting become real in time? Phillips (Glitter Baby) is one of the few authors who can make the impossible seem plausible. Her characters are a combination of wise, innocent, vulnerable, strong, sassy, and sweet, with snappy dialog and personal growth. This quintessentially Phillips book is one all public libraries should want.

After a successful run as America's favorite sitcom heroine, Georgie finds that her future as a film star is going nowhere fast. If a career in a downward spiral isn't bad enough, Georgie's Hollywood heartthrob husband, Lance Marks, has dumped her for sultry, sexy Jade Gentry, and  Georgie has also just learned that the "happy couple" is expecting. Georgie's life hits an even lower level of hellish humiliation when her attempts to repair her public image lead her to Las Vegas. There, fueled by one too many drinks, Georgie wakes up married to Bram Shephard, her former sitcom costar and her first great love. Desperate to keep from becoming tabloid fodder, Georgie works out an agreement with Bram that will keep them together for at least six months or until one of them kills the other. Best-selling, RITA Award winner Phillips delivers another delectable contemporary romance rich with her signature elements: flawless writing tempered with sharp wit, superbly crafted secondary characters, and sizzling chemistry between a charmingly resourceful heroine and an irresistibly roguish hero. What I Did for Love is another guaranteed winner from one of the romance genre's leading stars. Charles, John. From: Syndetics Solutions, Inc. Distributed by Syndetic Solutions, Inc.
