Product Description:
The Plan
Genius physics professor Dr. Jane Darlington desperately wants a baby. But finding a father won't be easy. Jane's super-intelligence made her feel like a freak when she was growing up, and she's determined to spare her own child that suffering. Which means she must find someone very special to father her child. Someone very…well…stupid.
The Target
Cal Bonner, the Chicago Stars legendary quarterback, seems like the perfect choice. But his champion good looks and down-home ways are deceiving. Dr. Jane learns too late that this good ol' boy is a lot smarter than he lets on -- and he's not about to be used and abandoned by a brainy, baby-mad schemer.
The Explosion
A brilliant, lonely woman who dreams only of motherhood…A take-no-prisoners tough guy who'll settle for nothing less than surrender…Can passion and physical attraction propel two strong-willed yet vulnerable people to a totally unexpected love?
Amazon.com Review:
Physics professor Dr. Jane Darlington spends her 34th birthday in tears. She wants a baby,but not a husband. Where can she find an average or, preferably, stupid man? She decides that Cal Bonner, legendary quarterback for the Chicago Stars is perfect. Jane sets her plan into action and after some trail and error she succeeds. But the results are more than she bargained for when Cal discovers her duplicity. How can a football player with an interfering family and a nerdy professor who has never known family love ever fall in love? With lots of honesty, understanding and a whole lot of humor. Don't miss this one! It's filled with engaging characters, laughs galore and a feel-good ending. If you enjoy it as much as I did, try Phillips's Heaven, Texas.

I have never in my life laughed so hard while reading a romance novel. Jane and Cal are hilarious, and when Jane was trying to convince Cal that she was a hooker and endeavor to seduce him, I laughed so hard that my husband thought I was having some kind of fit. Then comes the Lucky Charms scene a few chapters later...I almost died! The book is worth reading for the comedy alone, but the romance is enjoyable as well, along with the secondary characters. I loved Cal's family, especially his grandmother, and enjoyed the secondary love story between Cal's parents. If you are looking for a light read to pass a day at the beach or a rainy day inside look no further.

I am sorry, I know a lot of hard work must go into writing a novel. I bought his book on recommendations on the internet. I had to put the book down one third of the way through. I didnt even bother to skip to the end. There was nothing I liked about either character. There was no depth to the story. Sorry SEP

This story had you from the get go and developed into a really fun tale. The 'fight' scenes between Cal and Jane were a riot. A very enjoyable read.

Predictable, but entertaining light reading. Our book club enjoyed it, and shared some laughs over it.

After reading and falling head over heels in love with Heaven, Texas I could not wait to read it's sequel. THIS BOOK IS HORRIBLE. The plot could have been a very sweet love story. BUT INSTEAD it was boring unbelievable and annoying. I hated Jane. and Her ramblings about being a freak and her child being a freak were stupid. I grew tired of her weird hang ups Not wanting t be naked and CAN WE DISCUSS the fact that it is hardly ever mentioned she is pregnant? Nor does she behave as though she is. Several times I actually forgot she was! SKIP THIS ONE!!! I didnt even finish it!
