It's all in a day's work for Lucy Logan...
...and so is getting unemployed folks spruced up with designer duds at the charity shop Successfully Dressed. Anyone who knows Lucy knows her heart is always in the right place. But the guy who shows up wearing nothing but tighty-whities and a frown doesn't know Lucyor understand why she won't just let him buy back his "lucky suit."

Laura E. from CINCINNATI, OH wrote on 1/28/2007...*Starred Review* Max Nolan has a closet full of designer suits but only one "lucky" suit, which he wears to broker deals and make career-level decisions. Then the unthinkable happens. His current lover decides that if Max's business wardrobe disappears, he'll spend more "fun" time with her, so she dumps all of his clothes into the nearest donation collection box. Max is upset, especially about losing his precious lucky suit. Purple-haired, multipierced Lucy Logan is thrilled that someone has donated so many designer suits to her charity, Successfully Dressed. When Max demands his wardrobe back, she tells him he has to "earn" it by performing five days of volunteer work. Soon the zany, laid-back female and the conventional, uptight male discover that there are many things to respect--and even love--about each other. A cool cast of secondary characters adds much to the story as clever Plumley, who is already known for her entertaining romantic comedies, presents another winner in this humorous and engaging tale about a man who literally loses his shirt, but finds his heart.
Lucy is a big hearted woman running a charitable business who finds herself drawn to Max, the man she has tricked into voluteering to get back his lucky suit. A good fun read with lots of great characters.
Marie R. from BELLE VERNON, PA wrote on 10/10/2006...Enjoyable quick read!
A lighthearted romantic read, one read that I enjoyed.
Daphne S. from SAN LEANDRO, CA wrote on 7/27/2006...Max is unique, desperate for love and didn't even know it. He finds his exact opposite and both have to learn how to give, take and share. An entertaining book about Max and Lucy.
