Anything You Can Do — Sally Berneathy

Ares and Aphrodite Anthony and Cleopatra Superman and Lois Lane Bailey Russell and Austin Travers They can't get along with each other, but they can't get along without each other. Bailey likes to win whether in the courtroom or on the 10K race track. So does Austin. When the two meet, sparks fly in all directions. Bailey Russell's life is pretty much perfect. She has a dog, a condo, and she's on the fast track to becoming a partner in the small law firm where she works. Then Austin Travers shows up with his electric blue eyes and electric touch. He beats her in a 10K race, almost overtakes her in an impromptu swim meet, and cooks a delicious meal while her cheesecake tastes like greasy cardboard. However, she takes him down in the courtroom and in a game of chess. The score is close to even. Then she learns he wants to change her law firm, merge it with a bigger one, disrupt Bailey's life. To her chagrin, Bailey finds herself attracted to the annoying man, but she remembers only too well the painful days of being a skinny, awkward adolescent, the butt of jokes about red hair and freckles and brainy women. Men like Austin Travers reserved their interest for beautiful women with soft voices and bust line measurements that exceeded their IQs. Austin soon realizes that Bailey is the most frustrating woman he's ever met, a tiger, a force to be reckoned with. She makes him crazy, but all other women are pale ghosts beside her. She also makes him feel vital and alive. If only he can figure out how to be around her for five minutes without wanting to strangle her.
