4.0 out of 5 stars
A wonderful length for light reading, February 14, 2001
This review is from: Making Mr Right / I Waxed My Legs for This? (Duets, 43) (Paperback)
"Making Mr. Right" was the lesser of these two stories in that it went all too easily, and clothes were all there was to making the man. I got the impression at times that surface was all that mattered, when I'm sure the author didn't mean that; she just didn't have enough room to deal with other matters. Also, the misogynist atmosphere of the office: I was rooting for someone, hopefully the heroine, to take those boys to court for sexual discrimination! No one should have to work in those kinds of conditions. So in all, though this book had a good situation and interesting characters and a lot of good chemistry (sometimes that chemistry was too drawn out), it was a little too fluffy and surface for my tastes. But I look forward to more by the author.
"I Waxed My Legs for This?" sounds too much like the country song, but it was the better story with a lot of humor. Nicely-turned characters, great magnetism, and keep your hanky at the ready. Just the right length for this format.
