Max Carter, is an F.B.I. agent and he follows certain rules
in his life, and one is that he doesn't need a relationship.
His sweet mama disagrees, and she is forever trying to fix
him up with eligible women. In desperation, Max has to work
out a plan and comes up with THE ATTRACTION EQUATION that
fits just right. He will find a pretend girlfriend take her
to dinner with the family and they will leave him alone. You
know plans very rarely go perfectly, but when you blackmail
someone to join your deception, you can guess what happens next.
Gina Castillo his only hiding the perfect gift from her
brother ... problem is there is a really strict "no pets"
rule for her building, and she is caught by the irritating
but sexy neighbor. She expects trouble and never dreamed he
would want her as a pretend girlfriend. So to save her lease
and keep the puppy for a little longer, she finds herself
agreeing to his strange plan. What could possibly go wrong
with being his fake girl? It wouldn't be at all probable
that they just might fall in love -- could it?
THE ATTRACTION EQUATION is a funny, fun twist on pretend
turns real romance. Max, I found to be irritating at times,
but Gina was a joy. Her views on life are quirky and fun;
she brings quite a bit of laid-back joy to the uptight
agent. The dialogue is at times hilarious and other times
very serious as you follow this "should not be attracted to
each other" couple. I honestly could not put it down because
I couldn't wait to see Max's reaction when he realized that
his ordered, perfectly planned out life had taken a big hit,
and her name is Gina.
THE ATTRACTION EQUATION might be considered a Christmas book
(that somehow got put low in my "to read" pile) but it is a
festive, fun read that will fit in at any time of the year.
FBI agent Max Carter lives his life by a strict set of
rules—rules that don't allow for distraction,
deviation...or
a relationship. But tell that to his matchmaking mama. To
avoid yet another set-up, he announces he has a
girlfriend.
And now has to produce said girlfriend at Christmas
dinner.
Maybe Santa has a suitable actress in that red bag of
his...
Gina Castillo is about to break her building’s iron-clad
“no
pets” policy to give her little brother the perfect
Christmas gift—a dog. Too bad Max, the most
inconveniently
sexy tenant in the building, catches her red handed. Gina
expects to be evicted, but instead finds herself
blackmailed
into playing the role of his girlfriend.
Two lies plus one dog should equal a hot mess of a
holiday,
but attraction and Christmas magic might just defy the
rules...
