Mac Thomas is a sexy host of a radio show that is at leastly partly centred around his commitment issues and playboy status. Oh, yes, he is very popular with ladies, although he is always upfront about not wanting a relationship. Mac is also a recovering alcoholic.
Mac sees Kelley sitting at a bus stop, crying, clealry distressed about something. In fact, Mac doesn't know this, but Kelley has just found her best friend/flatmate in bed with Kelley's ex-boyfriend. Not only does Kelley feel betrayed by her friend of many years, but also she has to move out because Megan allows the sleezy ex move in. Kelley is difficult to forget, so the next time Mac sees her, he strikes a conversation and invites Kelley for a lunch out. Things progress quickly and Mac invites her to spend a weekend away at a comedy festival. Kelley isn't aware of his issues with alcohol, so she doesn't try to stop him when he breaks his sobriety. In the morning Mac wakes up in bed with Kelley and a new and shiny wedding bands on left hand. What do you do when you find yourself accidentally married? The plot may be a bit predictable, but it doesn't take away from its entertainment value. The pace is fast, and there is a good balance between hot and sizzling scenes and the discovery of the protagonists' past coupled with the development of trust and other feelings for each other. Of course, they have known one another for a ridiculously short time, while the issues they have to deal with are pretty heavy....I found the last chapter, set in one year time, a more realistic timeframe, and I found the ending sweet and satisfying.
