Summary: Sizzling, sassy fun!
Comment: Tess Elliot and Mike Grundel are movie reviewers for rival newspapers and from opposite ends of the socio-economic spectrum. Tess is from a wealthy, socially prominent family but she's trying hard to make it on her own. She's living on her humble journalist's salary and paying her dues in the hopes that one day she'll be covering hard news. Mike comes from the wrong side of the tracks and grew up poor, raised by his alcoholic father. He used to cover hard news, but when a source choked on him on a story involving local corruption, he was bumped down to movie reviews. He's lucky he didn't lose his job altogether since he seriously pissed off a very powerful local businessman. Mike still dreams of nailing Ty Cadman and he continues secretly working the story on his own time. Once he's exposed Cadman and restored his professional reputation, he's out of this small backwater town for good.
In the meantime, he loves to tease Tess, to whom he is extremely attracted but refuses to act on his attraction to her. She's like Grace Kelly to him, cool, beautiful and unattainable, and to her annoyance he's always calling her "Princess". Why won't he take her seriously? They trade barbs back and forth like Tracey and Hepburn and their rivalry is fun to watch. When they both stumble onto some new information about Ty Cadman's latest business venture, they wind up working together to pool sources and connections. He's got the street connections and she's got access to the same social circles Cadman travels in and that Mike could never get. All this time spent together makes it increasingly hard to suppress their strong mutual attraction. They begin an affair and since they already liked one another, feelings are not far behind. But once the story is done, will the relationship remain?
Another terrific read from Ms Warren - she has yet to disappoint me. Mike and Tess are both likeable characters and their romance is steamy and fun to watch. Highly recommended!

Summary: "Hot Off the Press" Lives Up to Title
Comment: This is a great book written in what I have come to appreciate as Nancy Warren's quirky, fun and sexy style. I was laughing by the end of page one. A definite must-read for anyone with a sense of humour.

Summary: Nancy does it again
Comment: I'm becoming a huge fan of Nancy Warren. Hot off the Press brims with her usual wit and sizzles with the kind of hot stuff fans like me have come to expect from her. The newspaper setting is really well detailed and the characters are some of her best yet. Well done. Highly recommend this!
