Tish Gallagher is a budding wedding videographer who has a
small problem. Tish loves to spend money like it is going
out of style. Her credit cards are maxed to their limit and
she doesn't even have enough money to buy food. She'd rather
buy expensive shoes and clothes than save her money. This
problem of hers was the one reason she ended up divorced
from the love of her life, Shane. But things are starting to
look up as she gets a call from the President of the United
States' daughter, Elysee Benedict, who wants her to film her
wedding. Tish is over the moon but she quickly comes back to
Earth as she finds out that Elysee's fiance is her
ex-husband Shane!
Shane Tremont is a secret service agent for the president and
his daughter. As Elysee is giving a speech, he saves
her life. The next thing he knows is that he is asking
her to marry him. Elysee is the polar opposite of his
ex-wife Tish, whom he has still not gotten over. He can't
forget the first time they met and the passion they shared.
He also doesn't expect Tish to film his wedding. But Tish
seems fine with the way things are, even though he can't
help but wanting to be with her every minute.
As Tish and Shane try to work out their feelings, Elysee is
dealing with some secrets of her own. There is also someone
close to Shane, Tish and Elysee that wants to harm them and
it is up to Shane to investigate and keep these two special
women in his life safe. But Shane feels guilty because he
can't get Tish out of his system. Tish can't help but lust
after Shane and Elysee, well, she is starting to see her new
bodyguard in a new light.
ONCE SMITTEN, TWICE SHY is a cute and endearing novel of
lost love, trust and everyday problems including money issues
and marriage. Tish is a bit eccentric and lives in the
moment. Shane is very much steady and even though he lives
for the excitement of being a secret service agent, he wants
his personal like to be a bit more subdued. Elysee is also
very sweet and so idealistic that I really felt for her,
especially when she realizes Shane and Tish still very much
love each other. Lori Wilde can write very engaging and
quirky romances and ONCE SMITTEN, TWICE SHY is one of them.
For an overall good read with some suspense to boot, ONCE
SMITTEN, TWICE SHY is a definite crowd pleaser and one to
pick up.
