"Witty, Wacky Fun"

Paige Hart and Ross Bennett are natural adversaries in the legal venue and will battle to the last bastion for their clients. Paige thinks Ross is the lowest of the low for being a divorce attorney and he thinks she is a shrew-- surely love is inevitable?

Paige and Ross are at the courthouse ready to joust yet again when a bomb goes off. When Paige regains consciousness, she finds that she is in a hospital quarantine unit and Ross is in the unit's other bed. They have inadvertently been exposed to Tibetan Concupiscence Virus or Horny Monks Disease. The incubation period is two weeks and they will be confined and tested for that period. The symptoms to watch for appear to be general horniness and attraction to the opposite sex.

After settling in, Ross and Paige are sure they must have the disease and decide that instead of fighting it to enjoy it! What follows is a wonderful romp that keeps you laughing and turning the pages to see how this wonderful and usually intelligent couple have so much trouble realizing they belong together.

Jensen's humor is quick, the dialogue funny and the secondary romance between their lady doctor and Paige's brother is poignant and wonderful. A conversation between Nick and Ross complaining about women never wanting talk and only wanting them for "one thing" had me rolling on the floor. Just a delightful book.
