Anne Eames delivers a delightfully fast-paced read.

If there was ever a person to believe in the power of Friday the Thirteenth, Carrie Sargent is one of them. Bad hair, bad perm, no fiance, and no job. The day couldn't possibly get any worse.But it does. On her way to a job interview at Cunningham Construction, Carrie runs into a Mercedes convertible. Okay, so now the day couldn't possibly get any worse.But it does. Carrie is late for her interview, and she arrives to find the owner of the construction company is also the owner of the Mercedes she just ran into.Cash Cunningham is set in his ways. He knows the difference between right and wrong (or so he believes), and knows exactly who should and shouldn't work at Cunningham Construction. It would be a cold day in you-know-where before he'd ever hire Carrie Sargent. Good references? Ha! Doesn't matter.But fate -- if you could call it that -- steps in after Cash agrees to meet with "management placement professional" Dwayne Flutie. Dwayne has found the perfect employee for Cash -- which turns out to be Carrie. Cash knows she's the best person qualified for this job, so he hires her -- with reservations.Cash learns to tolerate most of Carrie's "antics" -- with the exception of "Bring Your Pet To Work" day, employee assistance, and drug testing. No matter how hard Carrie tries, Cash refuses to change his mind -- until one of his most valued employees and friend is discovered to have a drinking problem. Cash needs to do something. Not only does Cash's friend need the EAP, but countless other employees as well.In CHRISTMAS ELOPEMENT, Anne Eames delivers a delightfully fast-paced read with memorable characters who are bound and determined to fight the changes between them both professionally and personally. And you can't help but to find enjoyment as Cash and Carrie exchange presents with each other on Christmas Eve.This book has found its home on my keeper shelf.Reviewed by SLS 1/8/97
