Is there such a thing as the perfect romance?
Charity Jones is chasing the perfect life. When the perfect job turns up in the small town of Fool’s Gold she is thrilled with the opportunity, and soon falls in love with all the town has to offer —everything except its most famous resident, former world-class cyclist Josh Golden. After a string of romantic disasters Charity is looking for the perfect love and Josh is completely wrong for her – even if he thinks he is perfect just the way he is.
Josh Golden is hiding something. He’s not nearly as perfect as everyone thinks. An accident has left the former Tour de France winner with scars that no one can see. No one, that is, except the town’s newest resident, Charity Jones. If he knew what was good for him, he would stay far away from her. But maybe that's just what he needs—someone who knows the value of his flaws…
Neither Charity nor Josh may be perfect, but are they perfect for each other?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
For her first Fool's Gold romance, Mallery (Hot on Her Heels) eschews her tried-and-true formula of a passionate heroine and arrogant alpha male hero linked by a tumultuous past, setting up two wary strangers instead. The mayor of Fool's Gold, Calif., is determined to match-make between Charity Jones, a city planner hired to create jobs that will keep the town's men from moving away, and Josh Golden, a professional cyclist and reputed womanizer. Charity, a veteran of romantic disaster, is skeptical of Josh, who's always surrounded by cute female fans. Josh, traumatized by a teammate's death and no longer able to race, feels too broken to maintain a relationship. The book brims with quick-witted, good-natured characters, and though Charity and Josh occasionally verge on blandness, their romance grows poignantly and with chemistry to spare.
