Lainie Ames feels like a loser. Her teen years were a nightmare. Her adult life hasn't been a bed of roses either. Penniless, she's forced to return to her hometown of Naples, Florida, using her high school reunion as an excuse. Lainie has always felt inadequate, so telling her family about her current situation is totally out of the question. So what does she do? She lies. And what happens when she tells a lie? You've got it. The situation keeps getting deeper and deeper.

However, if Lainie takes the job offered by a gorgeous, playful man named Jack, who is quite the saint, life has to start turning around. With Jack's sense of humor and a playful streak Lainie didn't know she possessed, she just might spend more of her time laughing and learning that her assumptions can be way off base.

Are you ready to be entertained? Spend a few hours laughing and smiling? Then DATING GAME is the book for you. Brandt sure knows how to pen a humorous, light and thoroughly enjoyable story full of witty dialogue and characters who really click together. You'll spend hundreds of pages laughing. Laughter is good for the soul and this story is chock full of it.

SUMMARY

The rules have changed since high school...Former chubby computer geek Lainie Ames, now a sexy P.I., has her high school reunion looming just around the corner - and she'll do anything to become the "most likely to succeed" with former prom king Blaine Harper.

Even if it means taking a class at Rules of Engagement - a company that teaches women how to snag the guy of their dreams. Armed with her list of dating do's and don'ts, Lainie is determined to win Blaine's affections. Too bad her every move is foiled by her partner, Jack. But is that because Jack's convinced that Blaine isn't the prize he claims to be...or because he wants a monopoly on Lainie's heart?
