Girl of My Dreams is off to a roaring start when Jillian Baker has to find a stand-in for a contestant in the show by the same name. Her  employer expects her to go on the street to get a contestant, but she, being actually employed by an outside agency, feels she could do a better job herself. Thrown on stage, in front of cameras with thousands of people soon to see her, without the thick lensed spectacles she needs to see, Jillian panics at her audacity to disobey Blake Caldwell and fill in for number twenty-five. Disobedience  will surely cost her the job and she would never see Blake again. In just a few short months, she'd fallen in love with the producer, now she would no longer be able to work alongside him, making sure the minute obstacles standing in the way of putting on a successful show were smoothed out.

 

To her surprise, Jillian, now going under her birth name Veronica, finds herself chosen as one of the top ten beauties by the millionaire Troy Langley and now must stay in the show until the Girl of My Dreams is chosen. From Hawaii to Las Vegas to Venice to France, Jillian ends up the chosen Girl of My Dreams for Troy Langley, but what of Blake Caldwell? What will her future hold? You must read the book to find out.

 

Girl of My Dreams is a superbly written story of true love, the kind of love that causes a woman to save herself for the right man. The story moves your emotions from calm to excitement to joy to happiness. Yes, a little fear shows its ugly face in there as well. A good, fast read brought to a satisfying end. A story that takes you into the heart of a woman's dreams of being in a beauty contest, desired by a rich handsome man, and admired by many fans. A dream come true for Jillian Baker. You need to read this book, ladies. Experience the dream.
