I re-read this one recently. Hillary Baxter works as a model in New York and when she's on assignment for wealthy tycoon Bret Bardoff she finds that it's hard to seperate business from pleasure.

It's a light read, fun but nothing exceptional.
Dated, which is to be expected since it was published in the early 1980s, but still entertaining. And, best of all, I can take it off my TBR shelves now.
Good not great. Fairly typical contemporary romance.
