Leto's shines and her characters burn

Leto is one of the fastest rising stars in Harlequin's Temptations, and maybe the brightest. I look for her to make to jump to big books anytime. She has that droll Southern Charm and she imbues every book with it, and she know how to make the attraction between her leads sizzle. I especially appreciate how her females are not stereotype, but are women with minds of their own. With this book, she once more proves why I ordered her by name only and cannot wait until her next ones comes along.Is there anyone who can get you into trouble more than a sister? That is the premise of Good Girls Do. At the University in Southern Florida (sorry, Julie did not use New Orleans again for she give such a texture to her works with that as a background!) Dr. Miranda Carpenter's sister pushed the CISS - Campus Institute for Safe Sex and Dr. Noah Yeager into nominating Miranda as woman of the year role model. Teri makes sure the papers pick up on it, and next thing Miranda is label "practically a virgin" - and as the late Robert Mitchum would tell you, there's nothing worse than a semi-virgin!!Miranda is humiliated by this all, and Noah understands this, and had no idea Teri would shout it everywhere. Added to Miranda's humiliation is an attraction to Noah, but she has started away from the Party Animal that was known for his one night stands and love them and leave them attitude. Noah has been attracted to her for some time, but stayed his distance because he has had two bad relationships, one which ended in divorce.However, Miranda is just ticked enough to take out her anger and frustration on Noah by winding up his clock and then teaching him a lesson as she decided to go after and win the CISS virtuous award.As with all Leto's work, the banter is rapier sharp, warm and light, yet this story still manages to get the safe sex message worked in there.Now, WE NEED Teri's Tale, Julie!!!

Delightful, Sexy - Great Summer Reading!

Can Miranda Carpenter resist the charms of Noah Yeager? It's not easy, but Miranda is determined to give it her best shot. Her sexy colleague doesn't help matters when he insists on 'helping' her win The Most Virtuous Woman on Campus award. Along the way, Miranda sets out to teach confront-your-conflict Noah a thing or two about commitment.I LOVED this book! I'd never read one of Ms. Leto's stories, but I intend to correct that oversight. She has drawn very likeable, sympathetic characters to whom I was drawn immediately. Her dialogue is true and snappy. And the 'thunderstorm' love scene is guaranteed to leave your pulse pounding. [It was my favorite in the whole book].This is a great book to tuck into your beach tote this summer. If you think it's steamy at the beach, just wait until you read Good Girls Do!

Entertaining romantic romp

At the University of Southern Florida, Dr. Miranda Carpenter receives the letter notifying her that she has been nominated for the Most Virtuous Woman on Campus award. Miranda's sister Teri and their friend Noah Yeager were the ones to propose her to the Campus Institute for Safe Sex (CISS) because they felt she was an excellent role model. Based on information provided by Teri, the campus paper, The Bull Report, did an expose on Miranda with the headline screaming "Practically a Virgin", a humiliating label for the professor of sexual education at the school. Noah always wanted Miranda, but she seemed aloof and remote to him. Instead, he chased after various skirts, but made it clear that he had no intention of forming any lasting relationships. He apologizes for his role in degrading Miranda albeit even if he had no idea what her sister was going to do. However, Miranda decides to teach Noah a lesson even as she decides to earnestly win the CISS award, but soon the duo begins to educate each other on the meaning of love. GOOD GIRLS DO is a humorous romantic romp that will please fans that enjoy a campus love story. The tale is fun, breezy, yet provides a deep message on safe sex practices without preaching. The lead couple is a delightful pair and the secondary cast augments the novel with a feel of college life. Julie Elizabeth Leto is a talented author who owes her audience Teri's tale.
