Fantastic!

Rafe agrees to fill in for a friend taking Isabel's wedding photos and at their first meeting he is in lust. Isabel is too, but she's a cool blonde and has a poker face. When her fiancee breaks up with her when he discovers he's in love with someone else, Isabel's dreams of a husband and children seem over. She's 30 and has been in love with several men who are not the marrying kind; that's why she had agreed to marry a nice man that she respected but did not love. Isabel's fiancee generously allows her to keep the ring, gives her a house and stock portfolio in addition to the honeymoon trip (wow, where can I, too, find such a generous man and NOT marry him? :) Since she has the trip and has the hots for our guy Rafe, she invites him along. He takes her up on it and takes her every which way he can in this two-week romantic getaway. At one point, the condom breaks and Isabel does not realize it. Rafe does, but decides not to tell her, worrying her needlessly. Little does he realize she'd LOVE it if she wound up expecting his baby. There are some sizzling love scenes in this book and Miranda Lee fans should adore it. I realized as I read this book that Isabel's friend Rachel, who's taken time off from her job to nurse her step-mother or godmother or someone like that, is featured in another book.I wonder if Isabel's fiancee and his lady love got a book too? Luke really does come off nicely considering he dumps the heroine, so I'd be eager to read his story. Rafe thinks he's not the marrying kind because a young model tore his heart out when she used him and left him for a richer, more connected photographer. He soon realizes he has it bad for Isabel, who is described as a blonde type like those Alfred Hitchcock featured in so many of his films. That's a good, interesting description and Isabel's naughty fantasies when she first meets Rafe are hilarious. Her open approach to love making is a breath of fresh air and quite a surprise for good old Rafe.
