Beautiful Crazy

Lane’s promising debut doesn’t spare the steam as marketing professional Kevan Landry falls into the arms of Mason Dillon and takes him home for a hot, hot, hot one-night stand. Naturally, she doesn’t know he’s a business rival—the wealthy scion of one of Oregon’s biggest marketing firms—until after he’s won her heart. Kevan, a former tattoo artist who’s as quirky and complicated as the Portland music scene, is fighting for her life. She’s run out of resources to keep Jolt Marketing afloat and also needs money to pay her brother’s drug rehab bills. If she can only secure a marketing deal with rock band Manix Curse, she’ll be all set. But when she learns that Mason also hungers to close a deal with the band, she loses all hope. Everything gets even more complicated when the band inexplicably invites the pair to tour with them. Raunchy sex and business espionage add to the unbridled appeal of this oil-and-water love match. Agent: Cate Hart, Corvisiero Literary. (Nov.)
