Appearances are everything when DC lobbyist Tiffany Albright seeks a weekend opportunity for fun in Savannah. Sick of weak handshakes and political maneuverings, Tiffany seeks a wild weekend. Unfortunately, St. Patrick's Day parades and green beer lead Tiffany to believe that she has lost out on her chance for excitement until she spies a street musician with an alluring saying on his t-shirt. Suddenly Tiffany acts completely out of character and captures the attention of Chance MCMann.

When he stands too close to a curb, Chance never expected a splash of horse maneuver to lead to the bold, beautiful woman of his fantasies. A fitting end to a day filled with lost luggage and lost reservations. All he had to do was trade his suit for a t-shirt and cut loose on a sax for his life to change radically. Too bad Chance actually embodies the very traits that Tiffany professes to abhor. But with fabulous chemistry, what's a girl to do when the guy of her dreams turns out to be a stuffed shirt?

Author Darlene Gardner once again brings her flair for dramatic characterization and humor to ONE HOT CHANCE. Chance provides enough heat to keep the novel sizzling even if Tiffany's characterization seems a bit uneven. A lively, sexy read filled with the unexpected, ONE HOT CHANCE comes highly recommended.

DC lobbyist Tiffany Albright is tired of the Washington scene with the phony smiles that never touch one face so when her long time friend Susie Dolinger invites her to spend a week during the St. Patrick's Day festivities in Savannah she flees for the south. The Iowa native figures she has earned some fun in the sun hopefully with a hunk with no power ties or even a suit.

Former Atlanta now DC lawyer Chance McMann thinks his trip to Savannah cannot get any worse since the airline lost his luggage, and his car and hotel rentals are nonexistent. That is until he seeks some clothing for the weekend. Being a large, he is forced to buy a T-shirt that says "Irish Would You Kiss Me". Chance and Tiffany meet and hit it off, but he realizes she thinks he is local yokel and not a DC attorney. Tiffany wants a fling, but Chance desires much more.

Though readers will understand Tiffany's frustrations, she comes across at times out of character. Susie recognizes that the conservative daughter of a Congressman from Iowa does not seek hunks even on vacation so that her needs seem off kilter. On the other hand the lead male is the type of intelligent caring bod that women will gladly take a chance on, starched suit or inane T-shirt. Together they make a heated yet amusing tale that the audience will appreciate.
