HUSBAND HUNTING 101 is a charming story that I enjoyed reading very much. Jenna, who owns a lingerie store, is very sweet, beautiful, sexy and single and wants to get married and have a family as soon as possible. Zack, who owns his own ad agency that he's trying to build up, is very handsome, ambitious, personable and sweet but he is determined that he will absolutely never marry.  Jenna meets Zack at his brother's wedding and his brother, Mark, suggests to Jenna that Zack design her new ads. When they get together, they are irresistibly drawn to each other and Zack's crises with his terror of commitments begins. I don't want to spoil what happens, but I will say that there are some original and cute twists in the plot on the way to HEA.The dialogue is snappy and sparkling and all the characters have three-dimensional, well-developed personalities. The imagery is done very well; it is both vivid and realistic. Unfortunately, the editing is ot well done; there are quite a few typos and missing words, but they aren't bad enough to disrupt the flow of the story.My only real criticism is that I think that Jenna is too young, at 27, to either own a very successful store or to be so worried about her biological clock. I think that both Jenna's and Zack's ages should e increased by 10 years; that would make the whole story a lot more believable. Overall, though, I think that this book is a great romantic comedy and I definitely recommend it.
