Book excerpt: It all started with switching places, a hidden identity, and a second chance for love… Nora Clark knows next to nothing about style. But when her identical twin begs Nora to take her place as a personal shopper, Nora agrees – just this once – and puts her best foot forward in borrowed stilettos to help her sister’s struggling business. Too late she discovers the new client is Erik Morgan, an orthopedic surgeon at the hospital where she works in real life. Erik, a former Olympic skier, couldn’t care less about his wardrobe. But with time running out before an important family event, and his attention focused on a long-sought career change, he reluctantly agrees to meet with his mother’s personal shopper. Turns out she’s not at all what he expected – and everything he’s been searching for. Or is she? Because the more sparks that fly between them, the harder it gets for Nora to keep up the pretense. And when she switches from high-style back to scrubs, what happens when Erik discovers the truth about who she really is? 1st Place - Laurel Wreath Awards Finalist - Golden Quill Awards BREATHLESS ON THE BOULEVARD is the third book in THE BACHELOR NEXT DOOR series – contemporary romances with sparkling dialogue and heroes to die for.
