And even more surprising was her new billionaire boss, corporate raider Lance Carrington. Decisive and dominant, ruthless businessman Lance always put his work first. But as impressed as Lance was with Krista's sharp financial mind and innovative ideas, there was another reason he couldn't get his newest employee out of his mind. What sizzled between him and Krista was more tantalizing—and complicated—than any white-knuckled negotiation. Now it was up to Lance to make sure things weren't strictly business….
The Mr. Right, Right Now! Promise: If you start following the principles of the Man Catching Theory right now, 6 weeks from today, you will have the man of your dreams. E. Jean Carroll, the popular advice columnist for Elle magazine, comes to the rescue of bright, high-achieving women everywhere with a foolproof program for finding love. In the first Man-Finding, Catching, and Captivating Manual for successful women, E. Jean provides a 6-week plan for finding the ideal mate.

So, here's the deal, Doll: If you acquire the right attitude (Week 1) and the right look (Week 2), learn to laugh at your fears (Week 3), place yourself where there are hoards of elite and eligible men (Week 4), get out of your own way and let Mother Nature hurl the chaps at your feet (Week 5), E. Jean guarantees you will live happily ever after (or for as long as you can stand it) with the man of your dreams (Week 6).

Or that there is an imaginary line women should not cross because men should introduce themselves. How many times have you seen a man you thought was attractive and would like to meet? Perhaps he did not notice you or was distracted at the time you noticed him. So, the opportunity just passed without any eye contact or conversation. It became just another missed opportunity to meet Mr. Right. I have created a way for you to meet men in a fun, very unassuming way. I call it "the game". It is designed for you to meet men and ask questions. "The game" is a method to eliminate ineligible men so that the last man standing is Mr. Right.
