One Night with the Wrong Brother

Sometimes the wrong date turns out to be the right man.

When a handsome TV star walks into the diner where she's working and invites her to be his date to a Hollywood awards show, Annie Lawrence is awed and amazed. Recently laid off from her PR job, she's more than ready for her luck to change. But the night of the date, the actor is a no-show, and his manager Ben takes her to the awards. Hiding her disappointment, Annie's determined to make the best of it. But as the evening develops, politeness grows into interest, then attraction. And as she gets to know Ben Granger better, she realizes that being stood up by a Hollywood star is the best thing that ever happened to her.

Ben Granger has been responsible for his little brother since he was born, helping him out of scrapes and rescuing him from trouble. Now that Kyle has landed a lead in a hit TV show, Ben, as his manager, is still cleaning up after him. Kyle's been using and dumping every Hollywood starlet who comes under his spell, so Ben runs a contest to restore his brother's image and chooses a sweet wholesome girl for the publicity date. When Kyle bails on Annie, Ben escorts her himself and discovers that she's no hayseed, but a poised, accomplished young woman with a background in public relations. As Annie helps him manage his brother's public persona, Ben realizes he wants her as his partner, professionally and personally. But when Annie challenges him to become his own person rather than his brother's keeper, Ben must choose between obligation and love.
