This review is from: Mr. Right Now (The Personal Touch!) (Harlequin Temptation) (Paperback)

The Personal Touch miniseries has been particularly entertaining, sharing the premise that a personal ad in Attitudes, a hot magainze for twenty-somethings, brings lovers together. Kate Hoffmanmn's use of the personals, however, is uniquely original.

Nina Forrester's weekends typically consist of peanut butter M&Ms and rented videos. As a fact checker for Attitudes, Nina spends most of her time researching on the Internet, at the library, or making calls. Four couples in the past year met through the personal ads and have married. Nina wants to pitch an article about it, using an ad of her own to further her experience, hoping to win a promotion to assistant editor. However, a potential buyout of Attitudes may have Nina in an unemployment line instead.

Multimillionaire Cameron Ryder is simply a geek who made good. He hasn't the patience for slick women, fancy lifestyles, and the high powered games most of his new peers enjoy. His chance meeting with Nina in a coffee shop has him hoping for another encounter soon, despite the damage to his wardrobe when she pours coffee all over his five-hundred dollar shirt. Once she mentions the ogre who may buy the magazine, however, Cameron introduces himself as Jack Wright, hoping to be Mr. Right before Nina learns who he really is!

This comedic romp will keep the giggles coming. While the accidents of disaster feels a bit extreme, the humorous results are worth it. Indeed, the colorful personalities and attitudes will have the reader laughing all the way through. Highly recommended.
