Great book!!!!!!!!!!!

This was a very good book. It is amusing and has some interesting characters that I can relate to! This is the first book that I have read by this author, and I will read another!!

A fun book

Ellies life is not going according to plan. She just broke up with her boyfriend and had to find her own place to live, her mother breezed into town after leaving her father because he had an affair, and her ex fiancé, whom she never really got over, is now her new boss at work and the sparks are about to fly. Body Language is a fun, light, easy read that you will enjoy if you are a fan of chick lit. You will also adore Ellie and get a kick out of her mother and bull dog.

entertaining chick lit second chance at romance

Ellie Peters enjoys her work as a UN interpreter, loves her dog Barnaby, but wishes her sex life was better as she has not had a boyfriend since Brian left for LA and he was a loser. When she reflects on her life she realizes that she has not had a good orgasm since her fiancé Michael Deavers dumped her without explanation seven years ago in DC. Her mother informs her that she is leaving her cheating husband in Florida and moving in with a beleaguered Ellie in Manhattan. Ellie also learns that Michael is her new boss at the UN. He has never forgotten her and realizes she is his soulmate, but he has commitment issues caused when he was young when his father's business failed. Still in love, will he overcome her hatred of him and his own inability to say I do so that they can share a lasting family relationship or will Michael fail both of them while his beloved watches her parents thirty-five years of marriage collapse? This is an entertaining chick lit second chance at romance starring a delightful protagonist whose world implodes between the returns of her mother and her former fiancé into all aspects of her life. The amusing story line predominantly provides asides from Ellie as she offers the polite response but turns to the audience with what she is really thinking. Fans also obtain some insight into Michael's feelings, but his electrons battle between love and commitment phobia rather than like the humorous thoughts running through the heroine's mind. Though Michael's issues seem to have weak base, readers will enjoy this love at the United Nations tale. Harriet Klausner

Body Language has all the right moves!

I loved this book! I picked it up because of the adorable cover, but I knew it would be a great read. Anything Criswell does is laugh-out-loud. Sparks flew between Ellie and Michael, the chemistry was sizzling. This really was one fun read and I highly recommend it!
