This book is by a local author and set in Dallas, so it intrigued me on a trip to B&N. The heroine of this story is an assistant manager in a pizza joint who thinks her life is never going to change. However, she meets the members of The Hunt Club at a friend's wedding and they promise her the opportunity to find her dream (read handsome, rich and/or famous) man and guarantee they'll be able to get him to marry her. This is obviously too good to be true and our heroine ends up involved in some serious scheming to get her dream man and unbeknownst to her, these plots involve murder! As she tries to back her way out of the situation, funny hijinks ensue and ultimately she does win her dream man and finds out a little more about who she is in the process. I liked this story because I identified with the heroine's view of herself as someone who could do better, but is stuck and doesn't know how to improve her life. But, when presented with an opportunity, she goes for it and has an adventure that changes her life.
Finished November 2008
