Oh my god! I loved this book. Though of course there was one downfall....there was not one drop of sex in it. *sighs* How does that happen? LOL! But other then that this book was great. Cute. Funny. Entertaining. The characters were loveable. And most importantly the story line was as smooth as silk from start to finish.
The story follows Lucy Valentine a woman who comes from a long blood line that has been blessed, and cursed, by Cupid himself in the art of match making. However while they can help others find their one true love the Valentine's are cursed at matching themselves so their marriages don't last. To make matters worse when Lucy was younger an accident zapped her matching making abilities and now she can only find lost items. Rings..car keys.. her fathers thong bikini. *shudders* If it's lost chances are she can find it... just so long as it isn't human or animal.
When Lucy's father skips town on a retreat after suffering a heart attack while having sex with someone other then his wife he leaves Lucy in charge of running 'Valentine Inc.' until he gets back. I couldn't help but suffer with Lucy in her insecurities with taking this job. I mean hello she doesn't have the gift of matchmaking anymore, every time she shakes someone's hand images of items they've lost flash through her mind making it harder for her to concentrate on faking her match making skills, especially when she sees an image of a clients lost engagement ring on the skeletal remains buried in the park. Add one nosey reporter determined to make their big break at any cost, a sexy private investigator who stirs up the sparks in her, and a grandmother set on matching her with every single bachelor she can and you get one hell of an entertaining ride. Fans of Janet Evanovich, Charlotte Hughes or Jennifer Crusie will easily fall in love with Heather Webber. This is a must read!
