Great narration (loved his voice for Jericho and slight variation for his film character, Laramie); another great story by Suzanne Brockmann. This centers around an A-list actor, Jericho Beaumont, looking for his big comeback after a fall from grace. In order to get the role of a lifetime, he has to agree to a ridiculous contract with the movie's producer/screenwriter, Kate O'Laughlin, in which he basically forfeits his pride and privacy 24/7 for the two months needed to make the film. This is deemed necessary by the movie backers to ensure he stays on the straight and narrow. After a short period of being "babysat" by a hired security officer goes awry, Kate is forced to be Jericho's watchdog for the duration. Great story about their developing trust in each other, overcoming their individual past demons, becoming friends and then lovers. There is also a great side story about a couple of the younger actors in the film which is actually a great set-up for a second book. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

HTML:NO WOMAN COULD RESIST HIM . . . Once voted the "Sexiest Man Alive," Jericho Beaumont had dominated the box office before his fall from grace. Now poised for a comeback, he wants the role of Laramie bad enough to sign an outrageous contract with top producer Kate O'Laughlin--one that gives her the authority to supervise JB's every move, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. ESPECIALLY THE ONE WITH THE MOST AT STAKE . . . The last thing Kate wants to do is baby-sit her leading man, and Jericho Beaumont may be more than she can handle. A player in every sense of the word, he is an actor of incredible talent--and a man with a darkly haunted past. Despite her better judgment, Kate's attraction flares into explosive passion, and she is falling fast. But is she being charmed by the real Jericho or the superstar who dazzles the world?

Despite my issues with the characters I did very much enjoy seeing the making of a Hollywood movie. It made me want to see the movie and I'm pretty disappointed that it doesn't exist. Although I didn't believe in the characters' abilities to fall in love I did find that Jericho, Jamaal and Suzie made excellent actors and that movie would have been epic. In addition, Brockmann's writing is consistently pleasant to read and the dialogue flows well.
In a Nutshell: A great backdrop minus a disappointing romance equals a very average read. Not nearly as good as her books with SEALs and one I won't read a second time ( )
