This book is as hot as Phoenix in summer!

Jasmine is not just shy around men. No, she suffers from a social anxiety so bad that she gets tongue-tied, freezes to the spot and pukes if she has to any spend time around men - especially handsome ones. So while her dream is to become a grand costume designer, for now she caters only to women. But what's a poor girl to do when she has a job interview with one of the most gorgeous theater directors around? What any other self-respecting shy costume designer would do, of course - she drops her portfolio and flees. Fortunately the theater director mistakes her nervousness for arrogance and self-confidence: "My work speaks for itself," and as he likes eccentric artists, he hires her on the spot - meaning she has to work for Josh Toby. Josh Toby - the actor twice voted as the sexiest man alive. Josh Toby - who also just happens to be the man her psychic sister has declared to be Jasmine's One True Love. Josh has his work cut out for him getting Jasmine to feel at ease around him. He thinks she's a great girl, and would like nothing better than to spend time with her in peace and quiet, but unfortunately his fans don't agree, and the press will do anything to get a photo of the star - especially when they start suspecting a new love affair. Add to the mix a jealous co-designer, a fake girlfriend with a crush and a librarian who's convinced that everybody else is insane, and you end up with the entertaining and fast-paced story that is Sexiest Man Alive. The perfect chick-lit for when you just want to forget all about real life for a while and disappear to a world where the good girl always gets her guy. While the ending does get a bit unrealistic and makes use of a deus ex machina (see note) to get everything sorted out properly, it does not diminish my enjoyment of the book at all. By far the wittiest, smartest and hottest book I've read all year. This book fairly sizzles! NOTE: Deus ex machina literally it means "god in the machine." It's used when a new aspectis introduced at the very end - when something comes totally out of the left wing and saves the day. The expression originated in Greek tragedy where a god would come down from the sky (via a crane to make it seem like he/she was flying - therefore the `machine') to rescue the poor hero who'd gotten in a completely hopeless situation Armchair Interviews says: Who doesn't need some sizzle in her life?

Drop the Towel!

Shame on me, I haven't read Make Me a Match. But I will now. Sexiest Man Alive is a great romance read. It's got humor, love, and hello the title says it, the Sexiest Man Alive! I love how shy and awkward Jasmine is and how Hollywood Hunk Josh wants to be the man help her overcome that. Of course like any romance, there are obstacles for each of the characters to hurdle, but Diana Holquist has a fantastic way of taking you along for the ride! I found myself laughing on the first page and smiling through to the ending. It's just amazing! I can't wait to read more from this author!

Run Don't Walk To Buy This Book

The much anticipated sequel to Make Me a Match is well worth the wait. Author, Diana Holquist has penned another romantic romp that is sure to please a wide variety of fans. Jasmine Burns is a disaster when it comes to attractive men; she can't talk and she's a klutz. When she's told by her psychic sister the movie star, Josh Toby is her fated match, she is flabbergasted! It just can't be possible; she's a shy wallflower who doesn't attract handsome men, much less a movie star. Of course, now that she has the job as his dresser, it makes things even more uncomfortable for her, but Josh has other ideas. Rousing fun and an original storyline makes Sexiest Man Alive one entertaining book that is difficult to put down. Jasmine is a personable woman that this reader felt great empathy for. She is afraid to believe she could attract such a "larger than life" gorgeous man and yet wants so badly to believe. Josh is a super sexy hero that grabbed a piece of my heart right away with his determination to show Jasmine he really did care about her. Bravo, Diana Holquist; this book is sure to be a fan favorite.

Sexy, Fun, and Engaging

Great follow up to debut novel Make Me A Match! Studly action hero Toby and shy costumer Jasmine know perception can be vastly different from reality. By knowing this about themselves, they help the other overcome their fears and reach their potential. The subplots show the main relationship from other perspectives and add depth to the story. Great read, can't wait for more.
