Product Description

When Amy Klasse loses her TV job to a dancing chicken, handsome veterinarian Jake Elliott rescues her with an offer to be his receptionist. Jake just can't resist a damsel in distress, and Amy certainly doesn't mind Jake's charming sincerity.

Then suddenly the job-stealing chicken disappears and Amy is suspected of foul play. Amy and Jake search for clues to prove her innocence. But will Jake be able to prove to Amy that love, too, is a mystery worth solving?

5 out of 5 stars Love & Laughter   June 29, 2002

This is one of Janet Evanovich's early pre-Plum romances, and it's an enjoyable, sexy romp. Amy Klasse, who has been playing a clown named Lulu on her own TV show for children, is suddenly fired because the new station manager thinks that a show about a dancing rooster would do better in that time slot. Jake Elliott is the local much-beloved veterinarian, who also just happens to be very handsome and sexy. He sees Amy in a grocery store, and for him, it's love at first sight. He begins a stealthy campaign to get her to the altar. Of course, romance never proceeds smoothly and the upstart rooster goes missing and Amy is accused of being his kidnapper and worse. The scenes are funny, the dialogue is witty, and the characters are realistic and lovable. This is definitely a book worth finding.

Another great story by Janet. I really enjoyed the CD and had to listen till the very end. Maybe I'm a hopeless romantic! :)


2 out of 5 stars Bad Ending!   December 23, 2008

I was loving this quirky book until close to the end. It was witty, funny and made me laugh out loud. The characters are fun and the thought of a clown losing her job to a chicken is absurdly hilarious! All was going well and I was enjoying the book (probably would have given it a 4 star rating) until the end. The last couple of chapters really didn't fit well. Spoiler Alert**** If the rooster deal was enough to drive Amy away, why did Jake not tell her what really happened in the end? A weather girl - no way! The ending felt too rushed and out of sync with the rest of the book. Wish Evanovich could go back and end this one properly. If I knew the ending was going to be so bad, I would not have read the book and I am a HUGE Evanovich fan!


1 out of 5 stars Must have missed something   November 26, 2008
J. Vitrano (Milwaukee, WI)
I certainly must have missed something that the other 2 reviewers saw. I admit I haven't read a book for enjoyment in the last 2 years because I've been involved in industry publications. I now have found time and picked this book as my first book. I've gotten about two thirds done and I find it somewhat annoying. She feels close to him because she washed his clothes, and he feels he loves her cooking, because it reminds him of mom.
Maybe I haven't been around much. What is the age suggested for this book? I'm thinking maybe tweens??




4 out of 5 stars cute story   November 27, 2008

when I was shooping for kindel books I came across this older Janet Evanovich book. I didn't realize she had written under a different name. The book is a light easy read and very entertaining.
