Single Londoner Tiffany Trott has had her share of frogs. Now, she's on the prowl for Prince Charming. A hilarious romp through the London singles' scene.

Loved this book. I enjoy all of the books by this author. Granted its typical chick lit but it was good and easy reading.

The heroine kind of irritated me a bit with her constant indecisiveness. But it was a fun read...

Oh, the trials of Tiffany Trott . . .

There was Phillip. Charming, attractive . . . and commonly known as Phil Anderer. There was Alex. Sensitive, thoughtful . . . and a bit too fond of women's underwear. And then there was Seriously Successful - the man she met through the personals and who really was Mr. Right - for his wife.

But that's all behind her. Tiffany Trott is not one to give up. So she's holding her nose and plunging right back into the mating pool. And in this hilarious novel of dates and disasters, friendships and fix-ups, she's going to do her best to find her knight in shining armor. Or at least a guy in men's underwear . . .

In this hilarious and distinctly British debut novel, 37-year-old Tiffany Trott, a recently dumped London copy writer, takes desperate measures to find Mr. Right, or at least Mr. "ok-looking-bordering-on-the-almost-acceptable." Armed with expensive cosmetics and designer duds, Trott vows to waste no time on golfers, "commitophobes," cross-dressers, or men with the distasteful names Terry, Kevin or Duane. Wolff cleverly chronicles the inevitable disillusionments befalling Trott as she responds to personals ads, attends singles events, signs up at introduction agencies and goes on a long list of blind datesAonly to meet the likes of a lecherous television reporter and a "Seriously Successful" married man. Trott's compulsive list making, large circle of friends and unique ability to commiserate with household appliances set up Wolff's one-liners. Her distinctive humor is consistent, most memorably in Trott's experience as birthing coach to an unmarried friendAshe graciously accepts the assumption that she is a lesbian partner. Quaint English vocabularyA"nosh," "knackered," "beastly," "pernicketiness"Awill add to the amusement for stateside readers.
