Gilding the Lily Book Review

This book was an older book which I could tell from the cover and the price on the front saying it originally cost $1.95.  I was interested to see how old that was going to be.  I went on Amazon and it said 1801....ummm, no it is not that old.  I guess they are selling it for like $1000 on Amazon so I might have to look into a great sale with this one.  I went on Good Reads and found that it was released in 1985.  I also found the picture of the cover there so that I could share it with you.  Gilding The Lily (Silhouette Romance) by Emilie Richards (1985-11-01) was the next book in the pile for me to read so I decided to check it out.

Lesley Belmont has always held back- from success, from men, from love.  But now she has a chance for her first solo interview, and she was determined to give it her all.  She planned to have Travis Hagen, America's premier cartoonist, tell her everything there was to know about being a comic-strip artist.  From day one Travis thwarted her plans and scrambled her carefully ordered emotions.  How could an interview go so wrong?  One look, one kiss and Lesley knew she was a goner.  Travis wanted her, and he let her know it.  And that was no laughing matter.

Lesley was living a life that was only focused on work.  She was working all day and trying to make the most out of her life without love.  She was becoming very successful and was working on a project about comic strips and the history of the comic strips.  Her boss told her that he set up an interview with an artist so that she could interview him and get more information on the way that they were created and the history behind the art.  Little did she know that she was walking into a set up and the artist, Travis, didn't know that she was coming.  She drove all the way through the countryside to find his small out of the way house and was excited for the interview.  You need to pick up the book to find out what happens.  Things quickly turn around for her and she realizes things that change her whole life.  I thought it was a good book and it totally could have happened now with a few updates.  I was entertained and wanted to keep reading to find out what was going to happen next.  I hope that you check out this book but from the looks of it, not through Amazon.
