Synopsis:
The up-and-coming matchmaking agency Kinnections is the hottest thing to hit Verily, New York—just like Kennedy Ashe, social director for the service she owns with her two best girlfriends. A coach, consultant, and cheerleader rolled into one super-sizzling package, Kennedy creates dream dates, encourages singles to shine, and never refuses a challenge—not even Nate Ellison Raymond Dunkle, rocket scientist, nerd extraordinaire, and Kennedy’s newest client.
Kennedy vows to work her magic and transform this hot mess in a lab coat with a disastrous relationship track record into the most wanted man on the Verily dating scene. If only she could turn the wand on herself . . .
Though she radiates confidence and sex appeal, Kennedy harbors deep-seated insecurities from a tormented past and lifelong struggle with weight issues. When she realizes she and Nate are cut from the same cloth and might be perfect together, can Kennedy learn to let her heart lead the way? Or will her fears sentence her to the sidelines as Nate finds love—with someone else?
Initial thoughts:
So far I can't find any excerpts, teasers or any hints regarding this book but it's still 3 months away so hopes are not all dead.
In a three-friend circle of friendship, there's always the sexual one. In this case, it's Kennedy. And I absolutely love a Pygmalion kind of story. What is Pygmalion you ask? Or I assume you asked? Think Pretty Woman. Hadn't watch Pretty Woman? Damn, you're missing out.
In modern definition, or rather, more urbanized definition, Pygmalion is when a person falls in love with something he or she created. Now, while Kennedy didn't exactly 'create' Nate, he helped created his new look. The theme of pygmalion is not very strong in this story but it is enough to draw my interest.
Kennedy was likable in the first book and I am really looking forward to this one! And I have to admit, thank goodness she doesn't have any 'gift' like Kate. That's just me though.
