From the Publisher
Run hard. Run fast. Just don’t try to run in heels. Especially if your name is Paris Jackson and you’re fashion-impaired. Designer labels and stilettos aren’t exactly Paris’s thing. Give her a pair of sneakers and she’s a happy woman. That’s why she’s spending nights designing running shoes for her start-up company, and why she doesn’t have time for an ex-husband on a therapy quest, a boyfriend who’s changing all the rules, and a confusing attraction to the boss about to fire her from her day job. And now people are telling her the way to succeed is through high-fashion shoes. Those will only trip Paris up. Won’t they? She’s about to find out.

Happy Reading!
Thank you thank you! I was so excited when I opened the package! So far I've only read a couple of this author's books but I really enjoyed them.
I LOVED this book! After the first few pages I thought it was going to be just another typical chick lit book, twenty-something heroine trying to focus on a career and find Mr. Right, though I'd had high hopes becasue I love Stephanie Rowe's Immortally Sexy series. Well my hopes were met, cuz the more I read the more I got into it. The writing is breezy and amusing, and while on the surface that description above does fit, underneath is a deep story (and this may be a bit of a spoiler so don't scroll down if you hate those)
about a group of friends still dealing with their emotions and life after the death of one of their own five years earlier.
And usually with a typical chick lit (or typical romance) you know who the heroine will end up with in the end, but our heroine here had three sexy men in her life, and I was kept guessing until pretty close to the end as to which one would be the true love. And when I decided it was one guy, it turned out not to be him!
Thank you again noumena12, for sending this book. It took me three years to get around to reading it, but it was definitely worth the wait!

JennyC1230 has this on her wish list, so this book is hitching a ride with a book ring book that I'm mailing to her today.
Thank you so much! I really enjoyed her Immortally Sexy series and I love a good chick lit book, so I am looking forward to this!
Thank you so much for the surprise!

My Review: This was such a fun book! I read it all within 24 hours, it's hard to put down. Paris Jackson is such a likable character. She's mixed up with her love life and her job as well. Her dream to make running shoes is conflicting with her "real" job at a bank. It's fun to see what happens!
I'm going to send this to another bookcrosser.
