SummaryANALYZE THIS....
Chrissy McMullen has made a career leap, all the way from
slinging drinks at Chicago's most notorious nightclub to
dispensing psychotherapy from her sleek new practice in L.A.
Even if she can't quite shed her too-loud, too-curvy alter
ego--or the brawling family that insists on claiming kinship.
So when her most famous client, buff football star "Bomber"
Bomstad, starts chasing her around her desk and getting,
well...unzipped...Christina gets just a little miffed--until
Bomber has the bad manners to drop dead at her feet.
Enter Jack Rivera, a no-nonsense detective with a grim
attitude and a great butt, who's determined to prove this
cocktail-waitress-turned-shrink was engaging in some very
unethical behavior. Persuading Rivera that she's not a
murderer isn't going to be easy. Plunging headfirst into a
city full of people in need of some serious therapy, Chrissy
will have to use all her street smarts, a good deal of sex
appeal, and a little love to clear her name--and cancel an
appointment with a killer.
