How to Score

Robin Wells

Ever since she was dumped by a man who hit her self confidence, Sammi Matthews has been clumsy around the men she meets, often injuring them. She moved to Tulsa to take a new job as the head curator of an art deco family museum. But the previous curator returns from sick leave rather than retiring, so now Sammi is working with a woman who resists all changes. Between the men and the job, Sammi calls a life coach.

FBI agent Chase Jones accidentally put his brother Luke in danger. Luke has to leave town under a witness protection program until the trial of a mob hit he witnessed. Luke is a life coach, a job that logical Chase can't understand. There are a few clients Luke doesn't want to give up, so Chase pretends to be his brother to help with Luke's cover.

When Sammi calls for her appointment, Chase is supposed to recommend her to another life coach. But the woman on the phone intrigues him. He adds her to the small list of clients that he coaches for Luke. He decides to see what she's like in person from a distance. Her dog and her clumsiness end up bringing them together despite his intentions. Now as they start to get to know each other, he doesn't know how to admit that he's her life coach as well as an FBI agent. To complicate things, a member of the mob is still looking for Luke and Chase is the next target.

Ok, the story line for How to Score is unrealistic and sounds silly. But Robin Wells makes it believable as long as the reader forgets that an FBI agent wouldn't forget himself like that. She also adds in a side story involving the world of art deco and older romance that adds to the depth of the book.

How to Score is a cute romantic fantasy. It's fun, especially when Horace, the accordion playing rapper, is thrown in. Enjoy.
