Her town’s lack of men may make headlines, but it isn’t news to Dakota Hendrix. The beautiful blonde has bigger problems to deal with, such as overseeing the romance reality competition filming in Fool’s Gold. Screening eligible bachelors is a difficult enough task, but Dakota hits an unexpected snag when a sexy stranger comes to town. Finn Anderssen will do anything to keep his twin brothers — the perfect contestants — off the show. Despite Dakota’s better judgment, she finds herself drawn to the mysterious outsider. Like her, Finn knows about heartbreak and how a family can fall apart, so she doesn’t dare to hope for anything more than a fling. After all, even in the Land of Happy Endings, finding true love is never as easy as it looks on TV. “Warm, funny, and sexy…a satisfying, rewarding read.” —Library Journal on Chasing Perfect

" I love all of Susan Mallery's novels, especially the Fool's Gold series but I always wonder why all the books end the same, someone ends up pregnant out of wedlock? Maybe it's just me being old fashioned but I would love to see a reversal of this in one of her books. "

— Charlotte, 1/14/2014" This is a romance novel about Dakota Hendrix who lives in Fool's Gold, a town short of men but with people who care about each. The town is allowing a reality show to be taped there. From Alaska comes the Finn brothers. Finn comes to rescue his twin brothers, Sasha and Stephen, who he raised after their parents died. The usual formula of great sex while falling love, though neither one believes the other loves them. Its a nice story for escape. "
