But one night a drunk patron argues with her and dumps a beer on her and she gets angry and douses him with the rest of the beer. She gets fired. The owner refuses to gives her the money she is entitled to. She leaves without her coat and her tips. AND it's raining. She looks like a drowned rat!A limo splashes her with water as it drives by. A man, Marco Santini, gets out and offers her a ride. But she is afraid. Eventually she does get a ride and he takes her home and gives her the kiss of a lifetime! The next day he leaves a message on her machine about a job offer to play the piano for one night at a building opening. She goes to his office building and applies for that job. But the HR woman offers her a position as Marco's assistant. He misunderstands and starts kissing Emily when she enters his office. Boy, that is some attraction they have going on. But she really needs a job.They begin a relationship and Marco misunderstands about her past. He thinks she is poor. Everytime she tries to explain he shuts her down. What will happen when he finds out that she is not a poor little waif?I liked this story a lot. The characters were well written. I really felt their chemistry. It was Saturday night & Emily Madison (Wilde) was working at the Tune-In Café (8PM-2AM) in NY. She played the piano. Nola her roommate had helped her get a job there. Gus was the owner. Max Pergozin (agent) had heard her play the piano. Emily did not have a great work history & she was fired from the Café. While walking around she meets Marco Santini who just happens to be driving by. Jessalyn Simmons is Marco’s mistress. It was pouring down rain & after a very long conversation Emily finally agreed to get into Marco’s limo & he took her home. He owned MS Enterprises (construction). Emily accepts a position at his firm 1st playing the piano for a benefit then a PA. The romantic fairy tale life of the rich/famous. Will Emily & Marcos get married? Cool book cover, great font & writing style. A very well written delightful fun filled passionate love/romantic book. It was very easy to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. Quite a few twists/turns. No grammar errors, repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of interesting scenarios & a great set of characters to keep track of. This could make a great romance movie or mini TV series. No doubt in my mind a very easy rating of 5 stars for this book. Thank you for the free book Tony Parsons MSW (Washburn)
