About this audiobook
There's something magical about Billy Nolan. It's not just that the Brooklyn bar owner is wickedly handsome; it is also that any woman he dates and dumps—and he dumps them all—immediately goes on to marry the next man she meets. But Kate Jameson is immune to his charms. She left Brooklyn for upward-mobility in Manhattan at the first chance she got, and she's not about to fall for some cad from the old neighborhood. But when her best friend Bina's engagement is broken off, Kate hatches a plan: all she has to do is get Billy to date and dump Bina. Then they'll wait for Bina's wayward fiance to return for the magic to happen. But the one thing Kate hasn't counted on is how Billy feels about the whole plot—and how she begins to feel about Billy. She may have changed her style, but her roots are showing.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is a quick and easy read. I believe it is the basis of that awful Dane Cook movie, Good Luck Chuck(?). It is much less crude and more entertaining than that movie though the premise is basically the same. A man finds out that after he dumps a woman, the next man she dates will marry her, and instantly becomes suspicious of women that approach him. It's a fun little read and well written. I'd definitely recommend it as a good way to pass the time.
