This is one of Miranda Lee's better books. It avoids the usual Harlequin pitfalls of under-educated, but gorgeous girl nabs incredibly rich man who she'd met the month before. The book features a pair who grew up as neighbors. They genuinely like one another, but the shy quiet girl who would one day become a librarian has a seceret-she in love with her very good looking go-getter friend next door. Normally, I don't like books when the pair have a quick courtship. That was o.k. and even successful here since the writer establish the pairs pre-existing affection. Sounds boring, but it is not. This is one hot book. I rarely find myself rooting for a Harlequin heroine, but I rooted for this one. Molly is "every girl" who, against all odds, bags her man. I found Molly, and the book, unusually charming and memorable. Liam, the hero, was slow on the uptake, but very hot and unforgettable.

Description from the book back cover: Goodbye, Miss Nice-person-next-door! When Molly McCrae transformed herself into a striking redhead, the entire male population of Sydney stood up and took notice! But her make-over was for Liam Delaney only. Sure, he showed an interest in the new-look Molly, but not in the way she wanted. He was over-protective - even a little jealous - but it seemed that a relationship with her couldn't be further from his mind. It was time for an ultimatum. If Liam didn't want Molly to lose her virginity to another admirer, then he would have to make love to her himself!
Stayed up all night finishing it.

The story starts out with Molly, a plain Jane who has had a crush on her neighbor's son, Liam, forever it seems. Although Liam and her are friends of sort, Molly has never made it known to Liam that her feelings for him are more than friendly. As she gets one year older, Molly feels that a makeover is in order. She goes and changes her appearance according to Liam's suggestions. Liam being the friendly guy that he is doesn't realize that Molly is changing for him.To a benefit to which Liam must attend, he asks Molly to be his date for the evening. She agrees and tops herself in the ultimate bombshell dress with her killer body that has Liam salivating from the moment he sees her. She offers him an offer that he can't resist.."sleep with me tonight or I'll find some guy who will." I think the rest you'll have to read to find out. I don't know what grabbed me in this story but it did. And I couldn't put the book down until I finished it, which was around 5 in the morning! Good read!
Didn't put it down until it was finished!

Molly had always loved Liam but he had never seen her as anything but a friend. Now Molly was changing everything about herself and suddenly Liam noticed that Molly was everything he wanted in a woman. This was a great story! I enjoyed this book so much that I didn't put it down until it was finished~~
