English school headmistress comes to Texas to do some historical research and find a way to get out of marrying a man she does not like. She meets a golf pro who is on probation, and offers to be her giggalo, and the fun starts there. This book is very funny, and will have you laughing and smiling all the way through. Susan Elizabeth Phillips is a very good writer of funny and enjoyable adventures.

This a book about a woman who is the head mistress of an English school. She is bound and determined to lose her good reputation. She visits America to do it. The man in charge of her cannot risk another bout with trouble, so is determined to stay in good form. Their wills clash as each comes up against each other. It is a very amusing and romantic book. I flipped over it.

Lady Emma Wells-Finch is determined to cause a scandal. Nothing big, you understand, just enough to convince her pompous British suitor that she's not an eligible candidate for marriage. She's thinking along the lines of, oh, maybe a discreet tattoo. But when suspended Texas golf pro Kenny Traveler meets her plane at Dallas-Ft. Worth Airport, Emma decides that he's the perfect candidate to destroy her reputation.
Kenny, on the other hand--who desperately wants to be reinstated on the golf tour--is just as determined to keep a low profile and remain squeaky-clean. If Lady Emma weren't a close personal friend of the golf commissioner's wife, he'd never have agreed to squire her around town. Unfortunately for Kenny, his weakness for the British beauty is growing daily, and it seems as though Emma may have feelings for him as well. In a bizarre turn of events, wild man Kenny finds himself trying to keep the prim and proper British lady from causing a scandal the size of which even the lone-star state has never seen, and the results will leave you laughing with delight.

Below the hilarious dialogue that is Susan Elizabeth Phillips's trademark, Kenny, Emma, and the charming array of characters that populate this exceptional contemporary are warm and wonderfully human. Emma saves her Kenny and he saves her right back--never were two people more gloriously deserving of each other.
