Book Blurb:
Sweet, bookish Neve Slater always plays by the rules. And the number one rule is that good-natured fat girls like her don’t get guys like gorgeous, handsome William, heir to Neve’s heart since university. But William’s been in LA for three years, and Neve’s been slimming down and re-inventing herself so that when he returns, he’ll fall head over heels in love with the new, improved her.
So she’s not that interested in other men. Until her sister Celia points out that if Neve wants William to think she’s an experienced love-goddess and not the fumbling, awkward girl he left behind, then she’d better get some, well, experience.
What Neve needs is someone to …

Today you will have the chance to win a copy of one of my favorite contemporary reads for this year that is none other than A Lot Like Love by Julie James. Needless to say, that as soon as I got in my hands my first book by Julie James, she immediately became one of my favorite contemporary romance authors! She’s plainly that amazing an author! And especially her FBI series is drool worthy! The way Julie combines the romantic element with the suspense in her stories make them even more appealing and the fact that we are talking about FBI agents that are staring in her series, that in my book makes her stories a must read!
