Review:

"In this superior contemporary romance from Myers (Do Me Right), Shelly Piper, a Denver television reporter, leaves her job at a local network and takes a position as a coanchor at a nearby PBS station, where she excels as a journalist. She builds a good professional relationship with Jack Halloran, her hunky boss and coanchor, that later blossoms into something more personal, though Shelly, a 'substantial' size 12 in a size 4 industry, must struggle with her self-image. The author convincingly explores the bonds of women's friendships as Shelly's best friend, Yvonne, plans her wedding to Daniel, and Shelly argues that Yvonne is agreeing to undergo breast augmentation surgery only to please her fianc. Myers's ability to portray true-to-life sympathetic characters will resonate most with readers of this captivating romance. Agent, Pamela Hopkins. (Oct.)" Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)

Synopsis:

In the cutthroat business of network news, thin is in, and Shelly Piper's size-twelve curves are causing viewers to demand a thinner coanchor. But while Jack and Shelly work together on down-and-dirty hardnews stories, all Shelly can think of is Jack...until the ratings come in. But Shelly has come too far to lose her job--or a dress size.
