Always a Hero
December 31, 1999
A moment of magic, a fresh new start.
A good time ... to get married?
Free-spirited Isabelle Charming only wanted to save her friend Maggie from marrying the wrong man. So how did she end up with the prospective groom herself? Colin Spencer was stuffy, honorable ...and sexy as hell. They were like oil and water, fire and ice ...but neither could deny the fireworks in the bedroom. Only, Colin was determined to return to his fiancee ....
Colin Spencer, heir to the Spencer fortune, never knew what hit him. While en route to the party where he'd announce his engagement, he found himself stuck in an elevator with Isabelle Charming and a bottle of bubbly. The next thing he knew, he was a married man. Which wouldn't have been so bad, except he'd married the wrong woman. Or had he?

About the author
Kate Hoffmann
391 books106 followersKate began reading romance in 1979 when she picked up a copy of Kathleen Woodiwiss's Ashes in the Wind. She read the book from cover to cover in one very long night and was immediately hooked on the genre.
The next morning, she was standing at the door to her local Waldenbooks and when they opened, she hurried inside and asked for everything else written by Woodiwiss. At the same time, she found wonderful books by Rosemary Rogers, Laurie McBain, and Jennifer Blake.
Nearly 10 years later, while working as an advertising copywriter, Kate decided to try writing a romance of her own. After a history of interesting jobs in teaching, retailing, advertising, and nonprofit work, she was determined to add romance author to that list.
After numerous failed attempts over three years, Kate decided to forget writing historical romance and turned to category romance. Six months later, her first story, A Vagabond Heart, was finished. A year later, Harlequin bought the book after Kate won the national 1992 Harlequin Temptation contest. The book was published in 1993 as Indecent Exposure.
Her dream of adding romance writer to her resume came true and in December of 1993 she turned off her alarm clock, shredded her pantyhose, and became a full-time writer.
Since then, Kate has written numerous books for Temptation, Weddings by DeWilde, Harlequin anthologies, Love and Laughter, and Duets. Her new Duet, Three Babies and a Bargain (July 2000) will be her 24th project for Harlequin and All Through the Night (August 2000), a Temptation Blaze, will mark her 25th.
Kate lives in southeastern Wisconsin in a cozy little house in a picturesque village. Two cats also live with her—Tansing, a grumpy Himalayan, and Tibriz, a tortie Persian mix that she rescued from an animal shelter. She enjoys gardening, golf, reading, and romantic movies.

This is one of my favorite books, it is SO.MUCH.FUN!
I constantly re-read it cause it can always brighten my day!
I love it, I love its characters and settings and the road trip!
Fab read! <3
and even though it is set in 1999 it is really timeless,
like I said I re-read it a lot and there's nothing that bothers me about the writing.
And if you look it up, don't let the hiddeous cover turn you off!
It's really amazing on the inside, 100% fun... well and sexy stuff [not for people under 18 I guess]
