Stuck In Shangri-La

December 1, 2005
Darcie Reed is tired of literally running from her bosses. She did not break her engagement to prove herself in a business environment in Pittsburgh only to wind up being chased around a desk by a randy CEO. She is about to quit when she learns that her only relative, Uncle Horry, has died and left her with a terrible surprise: she must spend a month on his estate, Shangri-La, outside of Philadelphia with her ex-fiance, Cameron Pierce, and her uncle's psychotic housekeeper, Lily, taking of his cat, Lucky, or an unknown half brother will be Horry's heir. Cameron is excited to spend the time with Darcie. He still loves her and wants her back. Now they find themselves stuck in a house with a driveway lined with flamingos, ribbiting frogs, a nasty housekeeper, the ghost of Uncle Horry, and a belligerent cat. Then the mysterious half brother, Edwin, shows up. Michaels provides her readers with a lighthearted romance that will leave the reader smiling.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2005, American Library Association.)
