Whoever said singles were missing out by not finding true love and getting married before the age of thirty had never experienced the sheer pleasure of nightly romantic comedy viewings in their underwear while eating one of Licked’s famous Crazy Cat Lady sundaes. Because life just doesn’t get better than that.
At least, it doesn’t for Shayne Callahan. It didn’t take more than a handful of broken hearts after college to solidify that she was better at pairing up those around her than herself. As a matchmaker at the elite HLS—Hook, Line, & Sinker Matchmaking Company—in the City of Angels, she has a knack for finding the other halves of even the most eccentric clients:
Sugar daddy with a foot fetish? Gross, but no problem.
A severe case of nudophobia? Match made before lunch.
But even the most happily independent of women can find their best-laid plans screeching to a halt when they meet that guy. For Shayne, that guy comes in the form of boyishly handsome, suspender-lovin’, dimple-poppin’ Nate Ryan on a pantsless (we’ll get to that later) Metro ride.
Of course, relationships can never be easy. Before the destined lovers can ride off into the sunset, they must overcome a power-hungry and sexual-punning boss, a celebrity scandal and cover-up, and let’s not forget Shayne’s dreadful foot-in-mouth disease—with which there can never be a happily ever after.
Will fate throw Shayne a freakin’ bone? Or will she be destined to live out her life as sexy(ish), single(ish), and L.A.’s finest Hooker (upper)?

This book had me laughing out loud and swooning for suspenders!!!!!!
I love Brooke's sassy characters and flirty banter!
Shayne is an awesome chick, and one of the four friends we met in Licked!
She's sweet and smart and random things just tumble out of her mouth when she's nervous!
Nate is a beautiful man with dimples and suspenders! He's truly a character I fell in love with. Charismatic, sweet, tender and kind.. and let's not forget sexy as hell!!
This book kept me entertained from start to finish. I actually continued reading it through a tornado warning while hiding in a closet! Seriously!
This book is fun, quirky and lighthearted... except for 1 or 2 parts that had me a little choked up, I'm not gonna lie!
It's also sexy and sweet and filled to the brim with friendship, loyalty and love.
I know I've said sexy and sweet about 10 times, but it really was. I truly enjoyed this book and can't wait for what Brooke has in store for us next!!
