HUSBAND HUNTING

Author: Kate Adair ISBN: 0759946302 6/2005 CONTEMPORARY Publisher: HARD SHELL WORD FACTORY

Taylor has been in love with Drew for ever, but he has never noticed her. Her biological clock is ticking and she is running out of patience. She wants him—now—and she isn't prepared to wait a second longer. She turns to her self-help books to help her plan a war against his heart. Unfortunately all of her self-help books suggest a different battle strategy. One by one, she tries and rejects their tactics. Only when she has thrown the last of her books away and vowed to be true to herself does she discover that Drew has loved her all along.

RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:

HUSBAND HUNTING is a wonderful, entertaining story about a woman who has been in love with her best friend's brother since they were kids in grade school. Taylor Moore is beautiful and smart and owns her own PR agency. She has been in love with Drew forever and will stop at nothing to get him to fall in love with her. With her stacks of self help books and her crazy antics Taylor is certifiable! She is an absolute joy to watch. Talk about going after what you want!

Drew Garrick has had a crush on Taylor for longer than he would care to admit. He has always viewed Taylor as his sister's annoying friend, so this new development is very disturbing for him. When did he start looking at Taylor as more than just his sister's friend? The relationship between our lead characters is dynamic and took on a life of its own as I read. The sexual tension between them is practically a living, breathing entity and made for a couple of very hot love scenes.

I was very impressed with my first taste of a Kate Adair novel. She is an exceptional writer that kept me interested from start to finish.
