Mad About Max by Lisa Plumley

Mad About Max

Sushi for pooches. Belly dancing. Men in their underwear.
It’s all in a day’s work for Lucy Logan…

…and so is getting unemployed folks spruced up with designer duds at the charity shop Successfully Dressed. Anyone who knows Lucy knows her heart is always in the right place. But the guy who shows up wearing nothing but tighty-whities and a frown doesn’t know Lucy—or understand why she won’t just let him buy back his “lucky suit.” Instead, she insists he earn it back through volunteer work. Of course, Max Nolan’s killer abs and effortless charm have nothing whatsoever to do with Lucy’s good intentions…

From minute one, Max can’t keep his eyes off the skimpy-skirted, boho-punk vision that is Lucy Logan. She’s a woman of ideals, while he’s a man of action—but that doesn’t mean they can’t collaborate on…any number of things. Beyond getting his suit back, Max figures he can make some great contacts with the shop’s rich benefactors, exactly what he needs to get his pampered pets boutique off the ground. And if he gets a little—okay, a lot—closer to Lucy in the process, well, that’s a sacrifice he’s only too willing to make…

“A cool cast of secondary characters adds much to the story as clever Plumley, who is already known for her entertaining romantic comedies, presents another winner in this humorous and engaging tale about a man who literally loses his shirt, but finds his heart.Booklist (starred review)
