Manhunting

by Jennifer Crusie

Kate Svenson may be a dynamite businesswoman, but after three failed engagements, she's decided she's hopeless at romance. What she needs is a Business Plan to help her find Mr. Right. The Cabins resort is ripe with eligible bachelors, all rich and ambitious, just her type. But they're dropping like flies, and after fishing Kate's latest reject out of the swimming pool Jake Templeton is convinced that Kate is nothing but trouble. Especially for him. A man who's sworn off ambition and a woman hanging from the top of the corporate ladder don't have much in common. But in that unpredictable territory known as the heart, anything can happen.

I’m back to loving flawed books the most, especially ones that include the note from the author explaining why the flaws are the reason she loves it the most, an achievement all on their own. Sometimes I forget what a first book could feel like— the impossible made possible in one stack of paper.

Like all Crusies, the banter alone is worth the price of admission. It’s small town Kentucky and hilarious ill-fated dates and true love born in a fishing boat on a lake. Throw in a dive bar and some competence porn and a few lifelong friends, what’s not to love? And love it, I do.
