Judd Turner lived his college years looking nothing like a hunk. Unfortunately for him, he was in love with Lucy Walker, who happened to be dating a hunk. After college, Judd became a P.I. and revised his image. He's looking forward to going to his 10-year reunion and showing off his new sexy self to Lucy, who he still thinks about. It's too bad he's got to lose the sexy look in order to bust Lucy's fiancee for embezzlement... One of the things I really liked about this book was that Lucy was attracted to Judd even when he looked overweight and nerdy. There were a few scenes that were really hilarious. This is one of the best stories I've ever read in a Harelquin Duets book, and I recommend reading it.?The second story, _The Husband Hotel_, is not nearly as good. Jay Overman, the inventor of the Impeccabra (a really good bra), has been given the job of keeping likely suitors away from Tara Patterson by her father. Her father believes she's the manager of the hotel in order to find herself a husband, and he doesn't want her to get married until she's 30. I couldn't like Jay, because, out of embarassment at being known as the Bra Prince, he tended to overcompensate with "manliness". I wouldn't have been surprised if, at some point in the book, he started grunted, bared his teeth at any males present, and dragged Tara off by her hair.
