Описание: Evening gowns and tuxedos embellish a hall set for romance, so their eyes should've met across a crowded room ...but the stuffed partridge glued to her shoulder blocked his view. Pierce Grayson, (Engineering Genius- a man who takes the debris from natural disaster zones and fabricates custom ceramics to rebuild them as easily as most people make a cup of coffee), just destroyed his best shot at True Love. A string of hopeful Mrs. Graysons (who take the term "chained to my desk" a bit TOO literally), make the billionaire appreciate the rare intelligence and selflessness of gifted muralist Allison Stanford all the more. (Allison's a woman so loyal, she's game to humble herself in the World's Most Ridiculous Maid Of Honor Outfit at the wedding of the season for her impish little sis with an axe to grind.) It's a fashion disaster, but her golden heart takes worldly wise Pierce by storm Everything's coming up roses until The Brainiac can't resist a side wager and messes up big time with Allison. He rushes with foot in mouth to apologize ...but would fair better if he waited until she was NOT on a date with a hunky Catch of the Day, in the middle of an awards ceremony in her honor, (also known as the biggest night of her career) Undaunted, Pierce arrives at her home, flowers in hand, gobsmacked to find himself facing off with 92 pounds of angry Grandmama guarding Allison's threshold (and her heart). Mema takes a fancy to the lovelorn exec, but realizes he needs special education on women in general (and Allison in particular) before he can earn a second chance with her granddaughter. When she puts Pierce through his paces, suddenly the man who helps OTHERS for a living is in need of aid (The feisty granny parlays her brief tutoring session into a free, extended, 5-star French vacation with ALL the perks ...without explaining her sudden disappearance to anyone, including her panicked granddaughter ) Certain her calm, cross-stitching Mema wouldn't vanish without a trace unless something bad was afoot, cash-strapped Allison chases after them to rescue her from whatever scheme the business magnate is plotting (...all as covertly as possible so as not to embarrass her 'helpless' grandma.) From Georgia's laid back vacation coast, to the French countryside, the glitter of Dubai, to the exotic streets of Nepal, Mema puppet masters the two headstrong young hotshots into Happily Ever After before they know what hit them. (With only minor damage and minimal international repercussions). If Pierce and Allison were half as smart as everyone thinks they are, they'd just surrender to Mema's will from the start. When they don't, it's a laugh out loud ride on the romance train; or, as Mema would say, "trickier'n carvin' a turkey with three dogs underfoot". Snuggle up and escape the craziness of modern life as you join Pierce and Allison while they navigate the insanity of theirs in this smart, clean, read suitable for all audiences (from tweens, teens to twilight years) who can tolerate a smooch or two, and understand Mema Knows Best.
