The Art of Undressing

From the Publisher
Ginger's mother, Coco, used to be an exotic dancer, though now she makes her living selling sex toys and teaching classes like "The Fine Art of Striptease." A straitlaced, self-respecting twenty-five-year-old, aspiring pastry chef Ginger has no desire to follow in her mother's high-heeled footsteps. She's too busy trying to convince her sadistic French cooking school instructor of her talents in the kitchen.
When Ginger gets sweet on a fellow student, she finds herself ill-equipped in the art of seduction. And when she discovers she has a reputation for being "just one of the guys," suddenly, she's looking for some motherly advice on how to catch the man she loves.

I am so happy that this was on someone’s wishlist which prompted me to read it instead of letting it languish on my TBR pile any longer. It was a funny, good read. Ultimately a romance but with a lot of insight into the psyche of Ginger, who is determined not to grow up to be her mom, Coco, a stripper. While at the same time letting us see what a strong woman Coco is, despite of, or possibly because of, her career choice. This was a great change of pace from the paranormals that I have been reading lately.

Thanks Camis!!
I will be reading this soon and then sending it out to Lizabeth86 as part of a trade.
I liked this, it was not predictable which was a nice change of pace. The characters were all interesting. I finished this book wanting more. I would be interested in a sequel and not just with the main character, I'd be interested to see what the others were up to. I will have to do some research and see what else this author has written. I'll be passing this on to Lizabeth soon.
Enjoy!!
