Paul Bennet is one of those lucky people who's good looks
and charm has helped him breeze through life with very few
bumps and bruises. He owns his own successful PR company,
he knows all the Hollywood VIPs, and he has no problem
attracting the attention of good looking women. Not a bad
life as far as Paul's concerned. When his current
girlfriend, Autumn, asks him to find a date to take her
sister Gwen to their parent's fiftieth anniversary party,
Paul doesn't hesitate before agreeing. He's sure this will
favor will help him seal the deal with Autumn and it won't
be much effort on his part. It turns out he's wrong on both
counts. Autumn is out of town and Paul's original blind
date for Gwen cancels at the last minute, leaving Paul to
escort Gwen. At first, Paul is surprised at how little Gwen
looks like her sister, but as the night progresses Paul
comes to appreciate Gwen's dry humor, sharp intelligence,
and superior dancing skills. More confusing is why Gwen's
family is so dismissive of her.
Unable to stop thinking about Gwen after the party, Paul
shows up at the bar where Gwen and her co-workers compete
in a weekly sports trivia contest. When Gwen asks Paul why
he's come and he tells her he wants to be her friend, Gwen
is understandably leery. Letting down her guard is hard,
but the more Paul works at getting to know her the more
Gwen finds herself sharing. Paul discovers he likes himself
more when he's trying to be someone worthy of Gwen and Gwen
likes how special Paul makes her feel in return. Can
something this good, for both of them, last?
In MS. MATCH, the characters are flawed just enough to be
human, they're also just special enough to be worthy of
their "lucky in love" status. And when the brainy girl gets
the boy after he works hard to deserve her? That's the stuff
dreams are made of.
Waking up in a hotel room next to a nearly naked Gwen
Christopher is a shocker for Paul Bennet.
Hmm, one too many the night before? After all, he's rich,
successful and looks more like one of his movie-star
clients than their PR rep. Paul can have any woman he
wants. Any woman—except Gwen's smokin'-hot sister. Taking
plain-Jane Gwen out as a favor was supposed to be his
ticket in.
And okay, sure, Gwen's fun and smart and interesting—and
absolutely amazing in bed. But she'd never fit in with his
parties-and-paparazzi lifestyle. This is a total mismatch.
So why's he so ready to dive back into bed with Gwen first
chance he can?
