What if youre a nerdy med student and a womanizing rock star wants you as her next conquest--then leaves you totally humiliated. Now fast-forward eleven years. Sexy and magnetic, Australian rock star Austen Farleigh is at the height of her spectacular career. Her penchant for one-night stands is as famous as her many songs. American Dr. Merritt Harrington now works for Doctors Without Borders and is at a crossroads in her life. Her last assignment in the Andes Mountains was harrowing, and her love life at a dead end. No one has been able to ignite even a tiny spark since Austen--damn her. When they meet again in Australia, Merritt is desperate to keep Austen at arms length. But temptation whispers in her ear. From the US to Peru to Australia and the highlands of Papua New Guinea, their desire for one another is on an uncontrollable collision course--with a force they may no longer be able to ignore.
P>Review For me several things took this book to a higher level that most f/f romances. Often side characters are props and one dimensional and the romance is between the only two available women. In this book there are other romantic potentials, a lawyer, a photographer, military medical people. Merritt actually goes on outings with another woman. I enjoyed learning about the work and stresses of DWB. Austens character was more a stereotypical singer. But she acknowledged her past and was willing to date to see where things would go. At one point a bar bet allows Merritt to show her trust and confidence in the new relationship. Another author might have turned it into a dramatic misunderstanding. I also loved Australia as the setting. When the author mentions a print of a painting I didnt know I instantly looked it up and found the original is in a bar in Melbourne. Little touches like that enhance the story and romance.--NetGalley-Kaye C. About the Author: Born and bred in Queensland, Australia, Maggie has always been an advocate for womens rights.
