Unpredictable

Romance Contemporary

Sophie and Doug have been an item too long for Sophie to give him up easily. She has a picture in her mind of what her future is to be and Doug is very much a part of it. Doug is rich, handsome and sophisticated, but he doesn't see himself in Sophie's future anymore. He's met a voluptuous blonde named Melanie.

Sophie chooses not to deal with this situation and between breaking into Doug's apartment building to steal his socks, becoming a psychic to persuade his new girlfriend he's not the man for her, and becoming a celebrity of some renown, she meets Nick, a short professor who fits her like the proverbial glove and loves her in spite of all her quirks and bad hair days.

The storyline and humor in this romance is amazing. The writer puts Murphy's Law to good use. Be aware that it's written in a strong first-person point of view. If you like this type of approach, then this is the book for you.

SUMMARY

Sophie isn't crazy, she just wants her guy back. And posing as a psychic to give his new girlfriend a fake reading designed to break them up isn't going overboard, is it? Don't answer that.

Faking psychic powers turns out to be fun, especially after a few lessons from Nick, the cute skeptic, who teaches her all the tricks of the trade. But her readings do a lot more than she could have predicted. Now she must decide whether to accept her rising stardom in a less-than-honest line of work-and whether the best option is trying to rekindle her old flame or finding romance with someone new. And, most importantly, she needs to figure out whether the answers lie in the stars-or in herself.
