About This Book
Les Hall wanted the perfect wife, and that was what Caro was grooming herself to be...when Dan O'Connor came along, looking for a woman to cherish.
A Matter of Choice...
From the moment she sees the modern glass "fishbowl" clinging to the side of the Hollywood canyon, Caro Anderson knows it will never do as a retirement home for her mom and dad. But Les Hall, the up-and-coming young store executive she is thinking of marrying, and his sister Corinne are eager to have her buy the place. Hard as it is for Caro to hold out against the Halls, it's almost harder for her to resist the sales pitch of real estate salesman Dan O'Connor -- a redhead with an engaging grin--and the appeal of the old but homey yellow house he shows her. As Caro hesitates, unable to make up her mind, the two houses come to stand for two different ways of life ... and love ...so that when Caro finally comes to a decision, she chooses much mere than a house: she chooses the right future--with the right man...
ANSWER FROM THE BLUE?
"How does a man know?" Dan O'Connor asked earnestly. "How does he know when he's in love?"
It was utterly preposterous, Caro Carlton's cosmetics department discussing love with this red-headed stranger. She laughed to cover her embarrassment...
"There isn't a thing I can tell you about love except that with some folks it sneaks up on them like a thief...others, I'm told, it hits like an earthquake..."
That's when Carlton's began to shiver and shake and hundreds of dollars worth of creams and ointments came showering down on them...
