I bought this book as part of a book box off eBay. I'm adding this one to my "to be read" stack. Turns out it is a duplicate. Will send the other one to BoosterJ

FROM THE PUBLISHER:
As far as her family and friends are concerned,Frieda has been the grieving widow for long enough. At 35, she's still (relatively) young, still (adequately) attractive. Her sex drive is very much alive; even Frieda admits she'd like to put it to use again. Besides, she has a son who certainly needs a father figure. With visions of the perfect second husband in mind, Frieda's sisters start to send eligible males in her direction.
Big sister Ilene -- herself substantially married -- has found the ultimateunattached catch: a gorgeous, independently wealthy, successful, divorced father, pillar of society and paragon of potential. What more could a single mom ask for?Apparently a lot more than loved ones realize. Frieda's own efforts bearvery tasty fruit. Sam is young, talented, devoted, and incredibly sexy -- though broke, only sporadically employed, and clueless about kids. But he makes Frieda feel brand-spanking-new, in a most wonderfully wanton way. When all is said and done, does Frieda really need the "perfect man" ... or the far-from-ideal man who's perfect for her?

Just finished reading this book late last night, or should I say, early this morning. It took a while to get into this book, I had almost given up. I didn't like the way the author kept using "Peter said" or "Ilene said" or "David said". It stuck out in the beginning. But somewhere about a third of the way through, I didn't notice it anymore and I really got into the story. It turned out that I didn't want to put the book down. A very nice story in the end. I'm glad there were happy endings.

Sending to my sister Jeanniebib
