PLEASE NOTE: This book may have an alternate cover. The following description is provided as a guide only and may contain text that doesn't specifically relate to this item. ...iggy, the conniving corgi from Carmichael's Finding Mr. Right, is back to defuse danger and play cupid in this cute and cuddly romantic caper. This time Piggy must find a mate for Joey DeMato, a hardworking wedding planner who has little time for men or corgis she attributes her offer to care for her friend's pesky pups to a moment of insanity. During a chaotic trip to a pet superstore, Joey encounters her old college chum, Alicia Somers, and agrees to plan her hasty, high profile wedding. Alicia's nuptials promise to be a major media event; she's marrying Ben Ramsay, the police detective who saved her from a stalker. To Joey's chagrin, Alicia's groom is the same wiseacre cop who gave her a speeding ticket a few days earlier, and he still has the unnerving ability to puncture her cool reserve. Although the two try to ignore the feelings brewing between them, Piggy's perky little nose senses the sparks, and she's determined to use her wily ways to bring them together. The romantic tension heats up as the bridal party heads to a Colorado ski lodge for a week of skiing, skating and danger. Piggy's monologues interrupt the novel's pacing and are often redundant, but her sassy demeanor keeps the tale lively. Dog lovers and romance readers will enjoy this satisfying stocking stuffer. ...... 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc. ......From Booklist...Joey DeMato, wedding consultant, is in a hurry when Detective Ben Ramsay pulls her over for speeding. When Joey starts being a smart aleck, he hands her a ticket, even though he kind of enjoys her attitude. This would have been the end of the matter if Joey didn't run into her old college friend, who asks her to orchestrate her wedding. The groom is none other than the policeman who gave her the ticket. Joey and Ben start off as adversaries, then deny their growing feelings for each other. Not only are their feelings a problem, but there is real danger involved. And then there's Piggy the dog. Joey has been taking care of another friend's pet corgi, who actually has the soul of a gorgeous gal who still has to perform some good deeds before getting to heaven. It's interesting to see how Joey and Ben try to get around the fiance issue, but Piggy's story is great fun in its own right. Maria Hatton... © American Library Association. |
