Love Conspiracy

Kathleen "Kat" Kendon has been asked by Todd Bishop to spend the weekend at his New Zealand palatial ancestral home. Todd tells Kat about his mother, the matriarch of the Bishop clan, and about his stuffy brother and his even stuffier fiancèe. However when they arrive, Todd tells Kat that he's told his family they are engaged, because he knows they will be outraged. He's also let his family believe Kat is a stripper when she's actually a serious actress. The reason Todd has done this, he tells Kat, is because he wants to marry a quiet, shy girl from a normal family and he believes that after they get a dose of Kat, his family will be more than glad to welcome Todd's real fiancèe into the family. Older brother Daniel sees right away that something is wrong with this supposed engagement, but he can't quite figure out what it is. Kat is attracted to Daniel. She fights it, but she can't help herself and she wonders what will happen when Daniel finds out about the charade. And then she learns that Daniel isn't quiet so stuff after all. Ms. Napier has written a romance that is sure to please any and all Harlequin readers. There is lots going on in this one and readers are sure to get a few laughs and even some thrills at Kat's exploits in the Bishop mansion, not to mention a sure fire does of romance.

Really liked this book. Liked that fact that Kat was such a strong heroine. She was definitely a match for Daniel. Didn't like her flaw of being easily manipulated by others though. But I suppose it went well with her strength of character. Don't understand why so many romance characters have to carry around baggage from a previous relationship where they got burned and just automatically throw that into any new relationships. Always seems like it is the guys that do this too! Daniel was no exception. Wonder if he didn't have that type of baggage if things would have been different sooner.
