How to Knit a Wild Bikini by Christie Ridgeway.

Ok, so technically I didn’t buy this book. I won it. Autographed. With it’s own bookmark. And got an email back from the author when I told her I loved loved loved her book. Jealous yet? You should be, especially if you haven’t read it.

I admit, if I’d seen this book in the only bookstore we have in small town Iowa here, I probably wouldn’t have bought it. Why? Because it says KNIT on the cover. This takes me back to a traumatic childhood experience involving Grandma Starkenburg, two needles and potholders. I’ll say no more.

However, since I won this (autographed) book, I will tell you, you must rush out and buy it. Now. This very second. Stop reading, put your shoes on, cover your jammies with a trenchcoat and just go buy it. Or, you know, purchase it on Amazon, give me a 4% feedback and have a damn good time when it arrives. Either way.

Nikki (heroine) is a chef in a restaurant but her bad knee makes it impossible for her work the shifts anymore. She applies for (and gets) a cooking job with Jay Buchanan, playboy extraordinaire.. He’s recently sworn off of women and hires (what he thinks is) a lesbian chef to keep him on the straight and narrow. Set in Malibu, this book is literally a laugh a minute, if not more than that. Hubby came into the bedroom and asked if I needed CPR I was laughing so hard.

Just buy it. You’ll love it. Five tails out of five.
