****4 stars
Great read. It is a plot that you have heard before in chick lit but has a fresh wit that will have you laughing at her disastrous dates and routing her on. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I did see the end coming but enjoyed the read anyway. Definitely an optimistic take on finding the right one!
Book Jacket Summary:
Spunky, sweet-natured Jessica Monroe is thirty-four years old and perfectly happy being single. Her girlfriends, however, disapprove. And when they secretly place a personal ad on a hot singles Web site on her behalf, Jess is reluctantly hurtled into the topsy-turvy world of online dating. A laugh-out-loud whirlwind of disastrous dates ensues, from Simon, who seems dreamy over e-mail but ditches her at the dinner table, leaving her with the bill, to Graham, a self-described "Ferrari driver" who turns out to be a car salesman - with several (old, fat, bald, creepy, cheap, stuck-up)men in between. When an unforeseen event turns her world upside down, Jess starts to wonder if the qualities she thinks she wants in a man - gorgeous, wildly successful, with a taste for fun and the finer things - really are what she ultimately needs...and whether, as a new mystery suitor appears in her e-mail inbox, Cupid has other possibilities up his sleeve.
