Meet Kate Mackenzie. She:
-works for the T.O.D. (short for Tyrannical Office Despot, also known as Amy Jenkins, Director of the Human Resources Division at the New York Journal)
-is sleeping on the couch because her boyfriend of ten years refuses to commit
-can't find an affordable studio apartment anywhere in New York City
-thinks things can't get any worse.

They can. Because:
-the T.O.D. is making her fire the most popular employee in the paper's senior staff dining room
-that employee is now suing Kate for wrongful termination, and
-now Kate has to give a deposition in front of Mitch Hertzog, the scion of one of Manhattan's wealthiest law families, who embraces everything Kate most despises ... but also happens to have a nice smile and a killer bod.

The last thing anybody -- least of all Kate Mackenzie -- expects to find in a legal arbitration is love. But that's the kind of thing that can happen when ... Boy Meets Girl.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Gave this book as a RABCK to bookwormess. I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you so much, Candy! Now I finally have all the books of this series. I like the way the story is told through emails and other notes. :)

I read the book this week while being on sick leave. Just needed something light. And light it was... I did sort of like it, even though the end was quite obvious and it had that Meg Cabot touch I dislike. The previous of the series - The Guy Next Door - was better, as it was quite adult (and it should be as the series is written for adult readers...).

In this book I liked the plot and I still like the way the story is told in e-mails, IM's, and other ways. But what really annoyed me was Kate. Mitch seemed adult and nice, but Kate - uh-oh! She's supposedly 25 but had these really childish thoughts: can't date him because he's a lawyer, etc. Well, the childishness would have been ok (maybe girls at 25 are like that, can't really remember) but the way certain things and thoughts were repeated again and again and again... I was like GET OVER IT! But that actually is the Meg Cabot touch I mentioned before. I've read couple of her teen books and they were similar with that kind of stupidity. And sorry, but I'm not sure if I can take it...

So, I'll read the next of the series as I already have it in my shelf, but it could be that I've had an overdose on Cabot. Or something. ;)
