Everybody Loves Evie by Beth Ciotta HQN Feb 2008

Everybody Loves Evie by Beth Ciotta.  This is book 2nd book in the Evie series.  Book 1 is All About Evie and I recommend reading that book first.

This time: her mission is personal…

Former casino lounge singer/variety act Evie Parish has moved up in the world, joining Chameleon, an organization that exposes fraud using reformed crooks to catch current ones. Her last assignment landed her in the arms of the delicious bad boy Arch Duvall, who taught her how to spot a grift and how to get over a lousy ex by having a superheated fling.

Now it's time to take to heart what she's learned. When Evie's mom falls for a sweetheart scam, Evie rushes to the rescue (undercover, of course), accompanied by Milo Beckett, her sexy new boss at Chameleon. Closely pursuing is Arch, who's decided Evie may not be a passing fancy after all. It's hard to concentrate on the case with these two macho males squaring off, but Evie's up to the challenge.

 My thoughts:  Another funny, well written book with great characters. This time we meet Evie's parents and brother and see more her friend Nicole.  Also, the conflict is set between Arch and Milo as they both start to fall in love with Evie and she wonders do i want my happliy ever after or my happy right now.   I cannot wait for Evie Ever After next Spring.  I may be in the minority, but I liked Evie and Milo.  I loved all their scenes together.  Nice guys should finish first, Beth!    Arch is smooth, but I don't trust him.  Milo, I could relate to and I was willing Evie to choose him!  Sensuality - Heat Wave -My rating 10/10.
