title: The Thing About Jane Spring
author: Krum, Sharon
description: At thirty-one, Jane Spring has everything a woman could ask for and seemingly everything a man could long for -- great legs, brains, rising star status in the Manhattan D.A.'s office -- but she just can't find a man who'll fall madly in love with her. Men are always lining up to ask her out, but for some reason no one wants a second date.
  
  Then one snowy night while watching a Doris Day marathon on cable it hits her: Doris Day always got her man. Men might say they want a woman to be smart, ambitious, and sexually available, but what they really want is a woman who wears a pencil skirt and kitten heels. Fine, if that's what they want, Jane decides, that's what she'll give them.
