The (jn)famous 17th hole at TPC SawgrassSynopsis from Amazon:
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.
My rating: 3 stars
My review: The plot and the dialogue are typical Phillips -- very sweet and funny. The characters, however, are straight stereotypes. Lady Emma? All hats and flowery dresses. Kenny? Cowboy boots and swagger. The book would have been great otherwise.
