As a psychologist, Kate Holly fixes other people's
problems. One would think that her life is a calm oasis.
It's not. Kate's mother and aunt are dumpster divers who
create art out of junk; her psychiatrist ex-boyfriend
should be on the couch instead of treating people; her
husband is probably the best thing that could ever happen
to her, but she's about to make their divorce final.
Kate's typical day starts with one of her patients
threatening to jump off the roof. She has a spectacularly
rich woman playing the role of her secretary, who's also
commercializing Kate's practice with specials such as
manicures and pony rides. To top that off, Kate comes home
at the end of the day to find her mother and aunt erecting
a sculpture of a naked man and woman in her front yard.
Once the elderly neighbor across the street sees the
sculpture, she starts preaching fire and brimstone. Soon
someone starts threatening Kate.
Kate still goes weak in the knees when she sees her soon-to-
be-ex-husband, so why in the world would she want to
divorce him? Because he's a fireman, of course; a man who
risks his life on a daily basis to save others. See, Kate's
dad was a fireman and he died on duty; something Kate
cannot deal with anymore. She does not want to be the widow.
When the threats start looking like something more serious
than the neighbor's taunts that Kate will go to Hell unless
she removes the sculpture, Kate turns to her husband for
help. Doing what he does best, he protects her.
For me, Kate is the stuff that smiles are made of. WHAT
LOOKS LIKE CRAZY is a delightful way to spend an afternoon,
evening or a late night. Charlotte Hughes knows how
to entertain readers with humorous dialogue and nonstop
comical situations. From panty fetishes to panty-less
getaways, this story will make you smile, make you laugh
and make your reading time thoroughly pleasurable.
Psychologist Kate Holly's own life has become the stuff of
intensive therapy. She's divorcing her gorgeous firefighter
husband, she has an eccentric secretary, her mother and
aunt have erected a vaguely sexual sculpture in her front
yard, and her psychiatrist ex-boyfriend won't stop calling
to find out what color panties she's wearing. Now, Kate's
being bombarded with mysterious threats, and the only
person who can help her is the one man who always makes her
lose her mind-and heart.
