The Flirt by Kathleen Tessaro - an easy but entertaining read...
On loan from a friend this summer, I read The Flirt. Intrigued by the plot it was the first of three Tessaro books I read whilst basking in the OC sand and sun. Well not so much sand and sun....but it sounds good right?!
The story is set in London, England where we meet Mr. Hughie Venerable Smythe, a handsome BUT out of work actor that charms his way from lunch to lunch. In a twist of fate Hughie responds to an intriguing job ad that thrusts him into the world of professional flirting. Yes, that's right - people, mostly husbands purchasing the services of professional flirts to keep their wives happy.
I have to be the first to admit - the business plan though not savvy in our current economic condition could have once been a viable enterprise. The book is cute and like I said easy to read....but very entertaining. The ending is a bit cliche if you ask me but ITS CUTE. So if you want to find out what happens....well pick up the book in a store near you (And that means Barnes and Nobles nowadays).
