Summary: She is Going to Get the Story, One Way or Another
Review: Young Alex Permberton, junior reporter for the London Chronicle, fears the worst when the paper's new editor Mike Tanner invites her to a staff meeting. She'd never been to one before and Tanner had recently cleaned house. Alex was surprised she still had a job. However at the staff meeting, Tanner wants her to beef up her Valentine's Day story and she promises to get the lowdown on wealthy bachelor Leo Hamilton's engagement to Fiona Bliss. Nobody on the staff believes she can get Leo to sit for an interview, but Alex has an ace up her sleeve. Leo is her stepbrother. Well, kind of, her mother was married to his father for a few months ages ago.

Alex tricks her way into Leo's office at the powerful bank he runs by pretending to be his fiancèe. However, Leo is not impressed and refuses the interview. Then Alex sort of blackmails him by threatening to do a story about how his mother had accused her of stealing a diamond broach when she was a little girl and had her throw in jail, only to find the broach later, so not wanting his well known mother dragged through the mud, Leo agrees to the interview. But that's not the only reason he agrees. There is something about Alex that makes his blood race. And Alex finds her emotions raging out of control around Leo as well.

Will Alex get her story or will she get her man instead? Will she get both or will she be the story? Ms. Lyons keeps you wondering right up to the end in this excellent romance that I thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend.
