I absolutely agree with the reviewer-this has "screwball comedy" written all over it.You can hear Cary Grant & Kat Hepburn- if you yearn for dialogue ricocheting like bullets from a gun,then this is the book for you.It also has characters from some of her other books -& I hadn't read them before,but I have now bought them all.When I finished the book- I felt a sense of loss I usually only feel after finishing a Linda Howard book- SEP 's writing is not like Ms Howard's-she's much more light-hearted- but the darker bits are just as heart-wrenching . Buy this book !!-you'll laugh like a lunatic-people will think you are certifiable- but it's worth it- then read all the prequels-you won't regret it .
