The Accidental Pinup

DEBUT Boudoir photographer Cassie Harris is excellent behind the camera, making her clients feel comfortable and sexy. With her best friend, Dana, she has built her business from the ground up. She’s tried for years to break into the lucrative advertising photography business, but each time she’s in the running for a job, Reid Montgomery walks away with it instead. When Dana’s body-positive lingerie line is picked up by major retailer Luscious Lingerie, Dana insists on Cass as the photographer and art director for the campaign, while Dana herself will be the model. Reid is the go-to photographer for the Chicago-area upper crust, as well as the man Luscious Lingerie calls for most of their campaigns. When Dana has to go on bed rest with her pregnancy, Luscious Lingerie suggests that Cassie step in front of the camera and model, while Reid takes the photos. Everything Cassie has worked for is in jeopardy. She’ll prove, again, that she’s capable by strutting her stuff as a model while simultaneously art directing, relegating Reid to shutter pusher. As they work, a relationship begins to develop between the two photographers. But Reid is keeping secrets from Cassie, secrets that could destroy her trust. This hot, steamy contemporary romance features interesting characters, rock-solid female friendships, and an empowering, affirming story line.
