Foul Play by Janet Evanovich

Aah... my feel good books... lol Janet Evanovich is one of the those authors who I turn to when I just want to read for the sake of reading, to enjoy reading and not have to think at all. Foul Play, along with a host of other funny romances, has been re-released under Janet Evanovich's name. It was originally published under a pen name - which I cannot remember. Foul Play is a fun light read. Most of Janet Evanovich's books are. And Foul Play does not disappoint.

In Foul Play, Amy aka Lulu the Clown just lost her job as a children's television host to a rooster! As she is fuming, she catches the eye of the local hottie and good guy veternarian, Jake. Jake offers her a job as a receptionist and a soft spot in his heart. When the job stealing rooster is brought to Jake's office and suddenly disappears overnight, Amy is under suspicion and tailed by reporters. While they are playing detective, Jake romances Amy.

I was a little confused at the end where Amy suddenly feels the need to run away. And ends up being a weather girl, no less. It didn't make sense.

But Janet Evanovich never fails in her entertainment value. =)
