BLURB:

There are three things you need to know about Kat Tanner (aka Kathleen Tyson. . . and yes, she is *that* Kathleen Tyson): 1) She’s determined to make good decisions, 2) She must get married ASAP, and 3) She knows how to knit.

Being a billionaire heiress isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. In fact, it sucks. Determined to live a quiet life, Kat Tanner changed her identity years ago and eschewed her family’s legacy. But now, Kat’s silver spoon past has finally caught up with her, and so have her youthful mistakes. To avoid imminent disaster, she must marry immediately; it is essential that the person she chooses have no romantic feelings for her whatsoever and be completely trustworthy.

Fortunately, she knows exactly who to ask. Dan O’Malley checks all the boxes: single, romantically indifferent to her, completely trustworthy. Sure, she might have a wee little crush on Dan the Security Man, but with clear rules, expectations, and a legally binding contract, Kat is certain she can make it through this debacle with her sanity—and heart—all in one piece.

Except, what happens when Dan O’Malley isn’t as indifferent—or as trustworthy—as she thought? 

I don't know what's the matter with me, but I seem to be in an all time low of a reading slump. Reading hasn't appealed a lot to me in the past weeks (or should I say months now?) and even Penny in her known goodness doesn't do that much for me. The story is a good one. The plot is solid. Writing is the way I'm used to with Penny (meaning well-researched and you know, enjoyable to read), but Kat's story kind of ... fell flat for me this time round. I've been waiting for this book for quite some now just like a lot of other Penny's fans have and I'm pretty sure that my lack of enjoyment had more to do with the unending book slump than Penny's style deteriorating for me.

Will have to reread once I'm out of my reading slump.
