After all, she certainly wasn't getting anywhere looking for Mr. Right. Why not a resort that catered to the type of man she wanted? And what she wants is handsome, tall, distinguished, and successful. The first man to fill that bill gets pushed into the pool. The second is stabbed with a fork. And so on. Kate was getting nowhere, but Jake Templeton, the laid back, nonaggressive keeper of the grounds, was beginning to worry about the men getting hurt. He didn't mind Kate looking for Mr. Right, but he wanted her to keep the damage to a minimum.Strange Bedpersons // Странные злодеи Год выпуска: 1994 Автор: Jennifer Crusie Жанр: романтическая комедия Издательство: Mira ISBN: 1551667436 Формат: PDF Качество: OCR Количество страниц: 173 Описание: Tess Newhart knows her ex-boyfriend Nick Jamieson isn't the right guy for her. He's caviar and champagne, she's take-out Chinese pot stickers. He's an uptight Republican lawyer, she was raised in a commune and thinks Cinderella is politically incorrect. He wants to get ahead in business, she just wants . . . him -- only not the social-climbing Nick, but the sweet, caring, unbuttoned-down Nick.
And Nick wants her, too, but there's no way Tess is about to play second fiddle to his obsession to make partner. Yet somehow she finds herself agreeing to play his fiancée for a weekend business trip that could make or break Nick's career. And while he's wrapped up in convincing Tess that he needs her in his respectable world, Tess is doing her best to keep her left-wing opinions to herself and her hands off Nick.What The Lady Wants // Чего хочет леди Год выпуска: 1995 Автор: Jennifer Crusie Жанр: современный любовный роман Издательство: Mira ISBN: 155166951X Формат: PDF Качество: OCR Количество страниц: 142 Описание: Nothin' like a dame . . .
Mitch Peabody was learning pretty fast that the life of a private detective was not all it was cracked up to be. Cheating husbands, suspicious wives, unsuspecting mistresss -- case after case left him cynical and disillusioned. This was nothing like the world of tough-talking detectives and smart-mouthed, stunning dames he'd envisioned . . . until she walked through the door.
Right down to her stilettos, Mae Sullivan was a knockout with a lethal body -- and a lethal family to go with it. There was something not quite on the up-and-up about her, but she came with a case he couldn't afford to refuse . . . and left him with a case of lust like he hadn't had since high school. It didn't take long for him to fall for her, hook, line and sinker. But was Mae only interested in catching the double-crossing crooks who murdered her uncle . . . or did the lady want to catch him?Anyone But You // Только ты Год выпуска: 1996 Автор: Jennifer Crusie Жанр: современный любовный роман Издательство: HQN Books ISBN: 037377138X Формат: PDF Качество: OCR Количество страниц: 111 Описание: Part basset, part beagle, all Cupid...
For Nina Askew, turning forty means freedom--from the ex-husband, freedom from their stuffy suburban home, freedom to focus on what she wants for a change. And what she wants is something her ex always vetoed--a puppy. A bouncy, adorable puppy. Instead she gets...Fred.
Overweight, middle-aged, a bit smelly and obviously depressed, Fred is light-years from perky. But he does manage to put Nina in the path of Alex Moore, her gorgeous, younger-by-a-decade neighbor.
Alex seems perfect--he's a sexy, seemingly sane, surprisingly single E.R. doctor--but the age gap convinces Nina that anyone but Alex would be better relationship material. But with every silver-haired stiff she dates, the more she suspects it's the young, dog-loving doc she wants to sit and stay!The Cinderella Deal // Чудесное превращение Год выпуска: 1996 Автор: Jennifer Crusie Жанр: романтическая комедия Издательство: Bantam ISBN: 0553593366 Формат: PDF Качество: OCR Количество страниц: 125 Описание: Чтобы получить долгожданную работу, Линкольну Блейзу необходимо... найти жену хотя бы на одни сутки.

In a warm, funny tale of opposites attracting, a man persuades a sharp-tongued woman to pose as his fiancee in order to win his dream job, but his partner in pretense plans to make her role a reality.Charlie All Night // Чарли всю ночь Год выпуска: 1996 Автор: Jennifer Crusie Жанр: романтическая комедия Издательство: Mira Books ISBN: 0778300757 Формат: PDF Качество: OCR Количество страниц: 222 Описание: Dumped by her boyfriend and demoted from WBBB's prime-time spot, radio producer Allie McGuffey has nowhere to go but up. She plans to make her comeback by turning temporary DJ Charlie Tenniel into a household name. And if he's willing to help her cure her breakup blues with a rebound fling, that's an added bonus.
Charlie just wants to kick back, play good tunes and eat Chinese food. He's not interested in becoming famous. But he is interested in Allie. And after all, what harm in a little chemistry between friends?
But suddenly their one-night stand has become a four-week addiction. Night after night on the airwaves, his voice seduces her. . .and all the other women in town. He's a hit. It looks as if Charlie's solved all Allie's problems. . .except one. What is she going to do when he leaves?Trust Me on This // Доверься мне Год выпуска: 1997 Автор: Jennifer Crusie Жанр: современный любовный роман Издательство: Loveswept ISBN: 0553445588 Формат: PDF Качество: OCR Количество страниц: 118 Описание: Jennifer Crusie believes there is a difference between male and female humor: male humor is slapstick and often pokes fun at people (like Three Stooges); female humor is derived from the relationship of things or people to one another, such as in a Seinfeld episode on television. A case of mistaken identities is the perfect soil for Crusie's "female" humor in Trust Me on This. Dennie Banks is a serious reporter, hot on a story, not a con man's moll. Alec Prentice is a clever, undercover agent, not a dumb male chauvinist hunk. Dennie and Alec can't quite read each other because they have ulterior motives. Thank goodness their hormones keep getting in the way. Eventually they are going to get to know each other, whether they want to or not.Tell Me Lies // Солги мне Год выпуска: 1998 Автор: Jennifer Crusie Жанр: романтическая комедия Издательство: St. Martin's Paperbacks ISBN: 0312932820 Формат: PDF Качество: OCR Количество страниц: 249 Описание: Налаженный брак очаровательной Мэдди Фарадей разваливается с угрожающим треском.

Жизньпревращается в калейдоскоп опасных приключений. И тут в родной городок возвращается отважный Кей Эл Старджес, первая любовь Мэдди - любовь, вдруг вспыхнувшая вновь...
If you think small-town life can be boring--think again. There are complex social rules: there are certain people with whom you fraternize and those you don't, and, of course, there is the all-powerful gossip. Everyone knows everything about everyone else. Don't they? That's what Maddie Farraday thinks until she finds a pair of black crotchless panties in her husband's car that don't belong to her. That's it; Maddie's had it. She's ready for change, and the first thing she's going to do is divorce her no-good, philandering husband Brent. But then everything goes haywire: Brent turns up dead, Maddie's daughter wants a dog, her best friend is suddenly acting very strange, and Maddie's secret boyhood crush, bad boy C. L. Sturgis, arrives in town after a 20-year hiatus--and he's as sexy as ever.

High school art teacher Quinn McKenzie's life is perfectly normal--and it's making her insane. She's living with Bill, the nicest guy in Tibbett, Ohio, and he's crazy about her. Really crazy. Quinn is already having serious doubts about the future of their relationship when Fate intervenes, in the form of the scrawniest, squirmiest scrap of a dog you'd ever want to lay eyes on. She figures if the dog has the good sense to detest Bill on first sight, she ought to pay attention. And besides, there's Nick Ziegler, local mechanic and totally unsuitable love interest. Of course, that only makes Nick all the more appealing, not to mention his phenomenal aptitude between the sheets, and against the wall, and in the car, and... But getting rid of Bill is harder than Quinn ever expected. In fact, Bill was the last person she would have thought would try to hurt her. Thank God Nick is as capable with a two-by-four as he is with an automobile engine! Jennifer Crusie's second contemporary romance is a smash--literally!

They Find Out That Falling In Love Can Be Murder…
But looks can be deceiving and soon Nell and Gabe are squaring off over embezzlement, business cards, vandalism, dog-napping, blackmail, Chinese food, unprofessional sex, and really ugly office furniture, all of which turn out to be the least of their problems. Because soon, somebody starts killing people. [close]
And shortly after that, they start falling in love...Bet Me // Давай поспорим Год выпуска: 2004 Автор: Jennifer Crusie Жанр: романтическая комедия Издательство: St. Martin's Paperbacks ISBN: 0312980159 Формат: PDF Качество: OCR Количество страниц: 911 (бракованный вариант с большими пробелами) Описание: Мин Доббс не верила в романтическую любовь…

Но если мужчина и женщина созданы, чтобы полюбить друг друга, так тому и быть!
Даже если их окружают бойфренд-ревнивец, кот-мутант, друзья-идиоты, мамочки-стервы и чудовищный свадебный торт?
Тем более!

But Fate has other plans, and it's not long before Min and Cal are dealing with a jealous ex-boyfriend, Krispy Kreme donuts, a determined psychologist, chaos theory, a freakishly intelligent cat, Chicken Marsala, and more risky propositions that either one of them ever dreamed of.
