BOOK SYNOPSIS

Party girl. Art thief. All around bad girl. It’s what all the newspapers call socialite and heiress Kate Sparrow. It’s all untrue. Kate’s been set up and she’s following the orders of the FBI to get the real criminal, her father. She’ll have to put up with her sister, the wedding fiasco, and her own fears that someone is after her, trying to stop her to get what she needs to prove her innocence.

Doctor Daniel Collins joins his brothers on a cruise to the wedding of his young cousin. His cousin begs him to keep a close watch on the bride’s sister, Kate. He's to keep her from ruining the wedding.

Kate doesn’t trust Daniel's help in her life, but the man’s interference is blocking a few problems. She lets him. After all, he spent a few years in the military and having a friend like Daniel is nice. But when her fears become true, someone is after her, pretending to be in a relationship with the sexy doctor has its benefits. What she hadn’t planned was opening her heart to trusting him. But if she doesn’t open up, she’s going to lose out on far more than her life, she’d lose out on love.

EXCERPT

Daniel slid into his seat and away from Eric, but his arms remained tense. His brothers wouldn’t like this plan. He didn’t like this plan. “I’m to babysit the spoiled rich princess and keep her away from the cops and the alcohol, this trip.”

He pressed his lips together. He expected his brothers to have an opinion, but silence greeted his ears.

All eyes went back to the door.

His collar grew warmer. Daniel glanced around to stare in the same direction. He assumed Kate Sparrow had stepped into the club.

His eyes scanned the room, and then the crowds parted. He had his first look. Time might have stopped, and he heard his own heartbeat. Brown hair with a bit of a curl, brown eyes, small frame, unusually large breasts for a woman her size, and an energy that took his breath away. He also noted that Kate’s eyes held a gleam, and Daniel’s mouth fell open. Kate Sparrow was the most beautiful woman he’d seen in a long while.
Beauty meant trouble. He turned back to his beer and refused to stare at her.

The pictures in the papers hadn’t done her justice at all. How did they turn that pretty woman into a viper with a camera? His mind raced. Did she have a Jekyll and Hyde personality that came out at night?

MY REVIEW

KATE HAS HAD TO MAKE EVERYONE BELIEVE SHE IS A BAD GIRL, PARTY GIRL AND ART THIEF.  SHE HAS TO PRETEND TO BE SOMEONE SHE ISN'T IN ORDER TO SURVIVE IN HER FATHER AND SISTER'S WORLD.  KATE HAS BEEN SET UP BY HER FATHER AND NEEDS TO FIND EVIDENCE TO PROVE HER INNOCENCE.  KATE HAS TO TOLERATE HER SISTER AND ATTEND HER WEDDING IN ORDER TO GET THE EVIDENCE SHE NEEDS.  SHE MEETS DANIEL WHO IS THERE FOR HIS COUSIN'S WEDDING.  

WHEN KATE'S LIFE IS IN DANGER, DANIEL PRETENDS TO BE INVOLVED WITH HER IN ORDER TO PROTECT HER.   THE MORE TIME HE SPENDS WITH KATE, HE REALIZES ALL THE GOSSIP IN THE PAPERS IS NOT TRUE.  DANIEL SEES THE REAL KATE AND WILL DO WHATEVER IS NECESSARY TO KEEP HER ALIVE.  DANIEL DID NOT COUNT ON HIM FALLING IN LOVE WITH HER.  WILL HE BE ABLE TO PROTECT HER BEFORE ITS TOO LATE?

BORROWING THE DOCTOR WAS A VERY ENTERTAINING AND ENJOYABLE READ.  I ENJOYED THE CONSTANT BANTER BETWEEN DANIEL AND KATE.  THERE WAS ALOT OF ACTION, COMEDY, ROMANCE AND SUSPENSE.  I LOVED ALL THE CHARACTERS AND THE STORY.  BUT I DID NOT ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS I THOUGHT I WOULD.  THERE WAS JUST SOMETHING MISSING FROM THE STORY AND I THOUGHT IT DRAGGED OUT TOO LONG.  I STILL WOULD RECOMMEND YOU READ BORROWING THE DOCTOR.  IT IS A GOOD READ AND VICTORIA IS AN EXCELLENT WRITER AND STORYTELLER.  I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO READING MORE OF HER BOOKS.  4 STARS
