Laura Sumers is not having a good day. She’s been fired by her boss and may be forced to move back home to Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania. She’s running out of time and she’s running out of luck! She needs a job to stay in New York City and fast! It’s then that fate intervenes when she is struck by a bike. The bike rider is none other than Scott Bratton, the famously handsome CEO of Bratton Publishing. Scott offers Laura the opportunity of lifetime, the chance to stay in the city she loves. It’s an offer she can’t refuse. In no time, Laura’s playing personal assistant to New York’s most eligible bachelor and wondering what she may have gotten herself into.
Erin Brady is a self-confessed romantic comedy addict who hopes to never find a cure. She spends countless hours re-reading Pride and Prejudice and admits to never getting tired of Darcy’s britches. She loves watching rom-com movies because, when it comes down to it, she can’t get enough of the “girl meets boy and falls in love” stories. Most importantly, she loves to laugh and finds humor in everything from washing dishes to singing karaoke off key!
Ms. Brady writes chick lit novels and enjoys every minute of it. All of her novels follow the lives of women who, mindfully or not, end up pursuing their dreams while making mistakes and learning to laugh (and fall in love) along the way. Erin admits that her inspiration for her characters often comes from her own circle of friends, despite her friends' protests otherwise.
Currently, Erin Brady has published five novels: And The Winner Is, Shopping Swap, Holiday Gig, One Last Blind Date, Twelve-Step Plan, Into the Amish, By Plain Accident, The Merry Plan and The Dogwalker.
For the record, Ms. Brady acknowledges her obsession with celebrities, chocolate, Spanxs and designer shoes. She spent the better part of her life single and looking for love. She's finally happily married to her Prince Charming but it took her a while (and the kissing of plenty a frog) to get there.
Last but not least, she has several subscriptions to tabloid magazines but mostly under different names although she claims she isn't afraid to admit it.
I didn't mind book, it was cute, but it was just so amateurish and sappy. It was the type of book I'd have written in my teens, or possibly now (as I'm not a writer) if I felt like writing a cliched, predictable story. This story borrowed from so many other romantic books and movies, it just didn't show any originality which was quite disappointing.
Was a nice quick read. Was stilted in some spots and found it odd in Scott’s parts it was like a narrator was giving the reader an overview of his thoughts. But all in all worth the time it took to read
Disappointed. The author's other novels were much better. You don't really get to know the main characters or why they love each other. All I got was a physical attraction. The characters just seemed very flat and the premise so unbelievable. The heroine is fired from 3 jobs in one year and them amazingly becomes a great personal assistant with no experience. Not believing it.
Love, love, loved it. Erin Brady always puts me in my dream world. I would love to be and Erin Brady character. I love Erin's writing style, she ways leaves me wanting more and never disappoints.
