Synopses & Reviews
From acclaimed author Valerie Frankel comes a wise, winning, uproarious novel about love—or something like it—in the big city.
From: Venus, Goddess of Love, 120 Main, Mt. Olympus
To: Stacy Temple, lapsed temptress
Stacy, Stacy, Stacy.
You were so promising at the beginning: Sexy, smart, personable and funny. Great on dates and really great afterward—if you know what I mean. But this is a sad state of affairs; or, in your case, non-affairs! It's been nearly an entire year and you haven't had your way with even ONE eligible male. You've been working so hard concocting sexy lingerie for Thongs.com—and really, Stacy, if that little pink velvet bustier didn't put you in the mood, I don't know what to say!—that you haven't even tried to be coaxed out of your own thong.com!
Are you listening, Stacy? Seven days to find the perfect man—or else!
Happy hunting!
