From bestselling authors Janet Evanovich and Charlotte Hughes
The next in the hot new Full series featuring Max Holt and Jamie Swift—filled with even more fast-paced action, crazy characters, steamy sex, suspense, and non-stop hilarity
This time the town of Beaumont, South Carolina, is going to hell in a hand basket. It all starts when Jamie decides to increase revenues for her newspaper by starting a personal ads section. Suddenly, the town gets "all sexed up." The local Chinese-food joint starts creating risque fortune cookies. A trashy lingerie shop opens. The bakery starts making pornographic pastries. Everyone gets the idea that sex sells. But someone has more sinister objectives. Several "unlikable" townsfolk end up dead. And the key to the murders is connected to Jamie's newspaper—especially the personal ads. Enlisting the help of the ever-so-sexy Max Holt, Jamie and Max have to battle raging hormones, a heat wave, a murderous villain, and non-stop attraction for each other in a novel where it's not just the air conditioners going full blast!

Jamie, madcap editor of a newspaper in Beaumont, South Carolina, and Max Holt, mysterious millionaire and silent partner, are back. Romantic innuendo and sexual tension run high as they investigate murders relating to ads in the personals column. Narrator Lorelei King handles a broad range of characters of both genders and all ages, switching seamlessly from elderly Vera, Jamie's secretary, to Muffin, Max's computer, who makes her presence known in a wispy Marilyn Monroe voice. King gives attention to phrasing and pacing in her characterization and story enhancement. Although the ending is predictable, the journey, filled with comedic incidents, often inspires outright laughter. For those looking for a romantic, well-articulated story. G.D.W.

Readers might well think they've picked up a multivoiced performance when they listen to this hilarious narration by Lorelei King. Meet Muffin, an artificially intelligent computer who sounds like Marilyn Monroe; Destiny Moultrie, a psychic personal column editor who calls herself "The Divine Love-Goddess Advisor"; Dee-Dee, who sounds like Betty Boop and is married to Frankie, "da mobster"; Max Holt, so wealthy he drives a two-million-dollar car; and Fleas, a neutered bloodhound who loves ice cream and donuts. Besides the enormous fun of meeting these great characters, the mystery is fast paced, and the romance is steamy. K.A.T. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine
