The disclaimer:  I am a 40 something straight male.  I had to occasionally skip over several paragraphs when the author was talking about clothing coordination.  I have grown to appreciate my wife's talents in this area.  I found this book entertaining till the last 10-20 pages.Spoiler Alert:First, the main character gets a job at an upscale clothing store where the owner was aware of her talents.  Why would this supposedly successful owner not have sought out and approached her if she was already aware of her?  Why not offer her a job immediately?Second, why does she have to hook up with Mike or any man for the reason (NO I am not a feminist but geez).  And what was wrong with Simon?  She said he needed a mint (bad breath?) and maybe he was too nice and decent.  And how was Mike going to support her with some crummy law practice for poor people.  I assume that they were poor because of the description of the office and how he was going to "help people".  An former FBI agent that wants to help people?  I am in law enforcement and most have a very jaded view of people that have gotten involved with the law.  The book would have been better if she quit after the main character moved out and got a job.  Maybe have her start dating a decent guy.
