Book Description:
She's got the high-kicks...

Lainie Terrell is no ordinary single mother. With feathers in all the right places, she's one of the hottest showgirls in Vegas. Aside from a hot-tempered ex-boyfriend on her sequined tail, Lainie's biggest problem is finding a decent babysitter for her son. Lainie's dilemma is solved when she ropes Harry Ambrewster, the casino's shy-but very smart and cute-accountant, into the task.



He's got the low-down...

Inheriting his chemist father's high I.Q. and sexy good looks, Harry has always been intrigued by Lainie. He isn't thrilled at the prospect of babysitting, but he'll do anything to get near the gal who fuels his craziest fantasies. Then Lainie's dangerous ex comes knocking...



Their option? Run faster than a pair of net stockings...

In disguise and on the lam, Lainie's masquerading as the perfect wife. Harry's doubling as the he-man protector. But with a set-up this hot, who's fooling who? When the lights go down, and the masks come off, a nerd like Harry could be just the right ignition to set a woman like Lainie on fire...

This was the first 'nerd' book I read and is my absolute favorite (read 3 so far). An accountant at a casino was raised my a showgirl mom who has a man who' believed to be connected to the mob...he falls for a showgirl and her little boy who's a 'genius' and helps her hide from her son's father who is trying to get the boy..for such a serious storyline it's full of humor and of course sex.

Cute. A fun read. I ended up liking the older characters better than the main characters, though.

This book was good enough for me to finish, but not high on my list of good books I've read. It had the typical fluff but it was full of plot holes. The characters also did a lot of thinking, doing, or planning to do stupid things that will make a person's eyes roll up into their heads. Even though the plot was weak, there were some really steamy sex scenes.

Anothe great Nerd book. Lanie is the young mom of a boy genius, 4 year old Dexter. She is also a Vegas showgirl. The accountant at the casino where she works is her neighbor. Harry is also Dexters new off and on babysitter. Harry is a super nerd, no matter how hunky, and he and Dexter seem to do just fine when they are together.

When Lanie's ex, Dexter's dad, comes to Vegas looking for his son to use in a sceme to get back in his rich fathers good graces, Harry wisks she and Dexter away - to the home of his mom, EX SHOWGIRL Rona and her boyfriend, who may or may not be involved with a certain type of italian group of men who are known to be, ummm, wise guys....

While trying to keep her ex away from her son, Lanie and Harry must play house with each other. The trip they take to fall in love is funny and sweet and full of great side characters that make this book worth the read!!!! The Nerd series, so far, is a BLAST!!!!

Accountant Harry isn't really a babysitter. He is just watching Dexter, Vegas showgirl Lainie's brilliant son, until her shift is over. But when Joey, Dexter's estranged Neanderthal of a father, tries to break down the door to get the little boy, Harry shimmies down a tree with Dexter and escapes. Making sure that Dexter is in a safe, well-protected house, Harry goes on the lam with Lainie. Thompson has filled her hilarious tour de force with unforgettable characters: a geek who becomes an alpha male when the love of his life is threatened; a Vegas showgirl trying to be both mother and father to her son; a four-year-old genius; a bevy of matchmaking, retired Vegas dancers; a too-enthusiastic condo salesman; an alleged Mob boss; a six-foot rattlesnake; and a dog named Fred. Thompson's many fans will be anxious to read her latest sexy, madcap, and highly entertaining adventure.
