Product Description

Mistress Of The Moves Molly Connors can talk her way out of almost every situation. That is, unless she’s around her boss, Kyle Ashton, a gorgeous computer tycoon with smoldering eyes and a long, lean body that doesn’t quit. Every move he makes promises sophisticated sex. What woman wouldn’t go tongue-tied?

But she can’t risk getting too close to Kyle. No one can know that her fabulous clothes aren’t hers, or that she’s holding on by her manicured fingertips. But once she gets that big promotion, she’ll make good on every one of her white lies. Uh-oh. Did Kyle really just say those three little words? You are... fired? He did. If she doesn’t have a job any more—or an apartment—she’ll do whatever it takes to survive, even if it means camping out in one of Kyle’s rarely used homes. He’ll never know. Right?

Master Of The Game Now that the sexy con artist has been pink-slipped out of his company and his life, Kyle can relax. Not. Molly doesn’t play by the rules. And the very important clients he just brought to his weekend house think that she’s his fiancée! If that’s her game, he fully intends to win. Even if he has to kiss her senseless…and love her all night long…

5.0 out of 5 stars Quirky Fun!, December 6, 2005
White lies can come back to haunt you. Molly Connors is positive that she is getting a raise after she gets her performance review from her immediate boss Sara. After all, Sara thinks that Molly is a "trust fund baby". Unfortunately, Molly just cannot bring herself to tell Sara the truth: that the fancy clothes she wears are not really hers. Molly has a knack for getting into situations where, as a matter of self-preservation, she creates a "little white lie". Molly knows this will catch up with her one day, but she just can't seem to help herself. Molly swears that she will make good on every lie she has ever uttered.

Gorgeous, hunky programmer Kyle Ashton, Molly's boss, sees his friend Glenn leaving the kitchen at work. Glenn has been having trysts at work but swears he would do nothing to harm the company. Kyle catches Molly exiting a cabinet in the kitchen and questions Molly about seeing Glenn. She makes up a story on the spot. Kyle knows Molly is lying and yet he cannot resist watching her. He is drawn to her enticing scent. When Kyle tries to get her to go out with him, she turns him down flat. Molly knows that getting involved with her boss is a recipe for disaster.

Later Kyle asks where Sara is and Molly informs him that Sara is in a meeting. Kyle knows Molly is lying once more. Things at Aston ImageWorks get messy when Kyle and his team learn that someone is trying to steal the specs on a new computer program. They decide to set a trap. Molly is in total shock when Kyle finds the incriminating green file on Molly's desk. So instead of her expected performance review, Kyle utters the famous words, "You are fired".

What can Molly do next? She decides to recoup by going to one of Kyle's houses he has not used in over a year. She tells the locals she is secretly engaged to Kyle. But when Kyle brings clients to his quiet retreat, he finds a fiancee' he did not know he had. Kyle immediately decides to keep Molly close and out of trouble. He will not let her out of his sight day or night.

Will Molly be able to prove she did not steal the file? Can she stop her "white lie" habit? Is there a future for Molly and Kyle?

Susanna Carr's Lip Lock is a wonderfully romantic story about two very diverse people. Molly is the quintessential con artist. It is a treat see how quick thinking she is. Kyle, on the other hand, has been betrayed in the past. He has a problems with trust, especially someone who has an affinity for "little white lies". I personally have a problem with people that lie as a habit, so it was hard for me to accept this quirk of Molly's. I could understand Kyle's fear of trusting someone like Molly. However, there is a real connection between them and Kyle and Molly are absolutely scrumptious as they burn up the sheets. Suzanna Carr has penned a well-crafted romance of a con artist at her best, so sit back and enjoy the show! I would recommend Lip Lock for those who enjoy wonderful quirky romances.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good light reading, May 9, 2006
By Richard L. Goldfarb (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I picked this up on a whim because I like well-written chicklit. Sorry if the phrase offends anyone.

Susanna Carr is sort of Marian Keyes without Keyes's real understanding of the quirkiness of daily life and people's emotions. But she's a good writer, and as other reviewers have noted, the book just sort of keeps you going, quick and easy. What Carr does have is a knack for making you care about her characters even though they are pretty shallow and don't really appear to live in the real world.

Obviously, the set up between Molly and Kyle is intended to be obvious and if they didn't end up together, you'd be worse than surprised, you'd be disappointed. I'm pretty familiar with the goings-on at large Seattle software companies not named Microsoft, and Carr does a nice job of giving some of the flavor, although Molly's surprise at the fact that programmers sleep at their desk and gorge on free food is a little odd; if you were the receptionist at one of these companies, you'd know that the first day.

Had Marian Keyes written this, you'd learn a lot more about Molly's old good-for-nothing boyfriend who ran up all the bills that got her into the mess she's in. And you'd learn something about Kyle's love life pre-Molly as well. But I think Carr is right in not filling us in; you just assume that they're pretty stereotypical and unimportant.

When the action shifts to Kyle's house on the "island" (presumably one of the smaller San Juans), the setting of a "working Thanksgiving" along with Molly's surprise presence is extremely well done, the sex scenes are quite hot. A nice read for the bus or beach.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read it in a day!, December 12, 2005
By Sara B. (FL, USA) - See all my reviews
I was totally surprised when i closed this book. I couldn't believe how fast it went by and how disappointed i was to see it end! Not once while reading it did i feel the need to skim to the end to see how many pages were left or how many total there were in the book. I truly enjoyed both characters and i won't go into their situation cause the other reviewers already did so, but i did feel like i needed to write a review just to give it good marks as a really enjoyable, fun read. I will definitely be on the look out for more by this author, either past titles or future ones. Really, really worth the time to read. You won't even notice the time pass while you're flying thru the pages!
