Why is everyone calling her "Lila"? Music teacher and part-time lingerie saleswoman Marnie Lundy's biggest thrill is playing piano at the local mall...until the night everyone seems to think she's somebody else Suddenly she's being addressed in code, menaced by a man who claims to know her intimately and rescued by a handsome spymaster who thinks she's a threat to national security But OPUS agent Noah Tennant has the feeling she's more Mata Hari than Mother Teresa. Could a woman this sexy truly be innocent, or is Marnie his opponent in a deadly game of spy vs. spy?
Light, witty and fabulous, this is a great book from beginning to end, as you watch the heroine change from ugly duckling into a sensual swan. The heroine, Marnie, is your classical mousy-type heroine -- in the beginning. But as events in the book unfold, so does Marnie! Thrown into a very creative and madcap situation caused by mistaken identity, Marnie ends up dealing with wild intrigue, a secret branch of Homeland Security, and an incredibly sexy cop/hero! All in all, this is a fun, fast, grin-while-you read book, the PERFECT BEACH READ!

This was another of her funny romatic spy novels. I have the other 2 in this series. I'm looking forward to the next.
fun sequel to YOU GOT MALE
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
In Cleveland pianist Marnie Lundy dreams of playing at Carnegie, but for now plays at Lauderdale's department store. One night after work in the parking lot, a man arrives handing her a package; another man tries to take the package; and a third man succeeds, but snatches her too. Marnie has no idea what is going on, but each male called her Lila. The third man says his name is Noah Tennant code name "Sinatra"; that the first individual was the Philosopher and the second the Sorcerer. His top secret Office of Political Unity and Security (OPUS) has been searching for Lila for five months and the Sorcerer for two years. She insists she is not Lila, but Marnie. As he learns she is telling the truth, he investigates why two women look identical and recruits Marnie to help them find their best agent the missing for five months Lila and the lethal treacherous Sorcerer. Like Marnie readers will wonder who slipped that hallucinatory drug in her water from the moment the frightened Philosopher dumps his "book" on her until the final confrontation between her and Sinatra as she forces him to sing what is in his heart. The story line is action-packed with Elizabeth Bevarly lampooning espionage thrillers while providing a strong romantic suspense thriller. The Lila-Marnie scenario is obvious yet the audience will not care as fans will wonder if OPUS is what Homeland security is all about in a fun sequel to YOU GOT MALE. Harriet Klausner
