Instead of being a frigid kook, she's all about grabbing life with both hands and her rather kooky outlook only makes her more adorable. Brandon is the typical lawyer with a wild streak that he hides underneath his well-pressed suits, a fun one that complements Candy very well. Their fling is fun, fast, and fluffy. If Looking For Mr. Right aims to entertain, then I'd say that it has done its job very well indeed." Mrs. Giggles"As the two different worlds are trying to live together, the reader is enjoying every minute of the couple’s misadventures. Looking For Mr. Right exudes enough warmth and charm to be a great, fun read!" Mahaira Fatima - Just Erotic Romance Reviews
