Manhunting: An Anthology

"The Chase" by Betina Krahn. Samantha Drexel and her two friends attend the greeting card trade show. She is working on a special line of musical cards with rocker Nick Stack as the star. She always cherished his music and now Sam is looking forward to meeting her idol, but Nick fails to show up at the first shoot. When Nick arrives, he knows he needs to cheer up Sam in a special way. "The Takedown" by Joanne Rock. Luke Owens knows he wants Tori Halsey, but avoids her as she is the younger sister of a friend. However the freelance photographer plans a special shoot to prove to her muse she is no longer the little sister. "The Satisfaction" by Lori Borrill. Kitty Colburn knows her gift store is in financial trouble, but her monetary woes do not prevent her from wanting Chef Josh Beeker. She decides to persuade the restaurateur to taste her delicious delight. These are three fun lighthearted contemporary romances starring women going after their respective man although the novella format never allows any of the characters to be fully developed (except for body parts), as expected from this talented trio.
