Publisher Comments:

He's never lost a bet in his life but she's playing for keeps! Cassandra Bishop's boyfriend is back. Only problem is.she doesn't want anything to do with him. Or his new fiancie. What the confirmed tomboy would like is to wring his neck. She might have done it, too, if he hadn't filled her in on the embarrassing truth that he'd left her at the altar because she wasn't woman enough to satisfy him. Her pride nearly settled for punching him in the nose.until she thought of something better-proving him wrong. High on Burke Hallifax's list of cataclysmic nightmares is having to look at his best friend as a real female. But when her ex-fianci makes his wedding a personal vendetta against Cass, Burke has no choice but to bet everything on her ability to out hot-girl the competition. Unfortunately, the entire town is betting as well-on whether Burke and Cass can pull off the makeover of the century.without losing their hearts in the process. Blue Ribbon Rating: 4.5 ...Let's hear it for the tomboys! Cassandra is such a fun character. She's bold and brash yet still girly, but not in a makeup and high-heels sort of way. She wants to be loved and get married, even have kids but Luke's cruel comments push her into a deep-seated need to prove to everyone including herself that she is a woman. Burke loves Cassandra just the way she is, her changing forces him to realize that she is desirable and he's always been attracted to her, that's why he hates Luke so much. Matters of the heart are always a gamble, but it's so worth it when you bluff and win. Chrissy Dionne, Romance Junkies
