But it sure beats writing boring brochures and bad resumes, so Jaine's not complaining. And her office at Miracle Studios needs a little sprucing up, and a few dozen rat traps. But-with a little help from her best friend Kandi-she's finally landed a gig as a sitcom writer! True, Muffy 'n Me (aka "Bewitched with Tits") isn't going to win any Emmys. Jaine still hasn't found a good man-or a way to keep all those sugary snacks from going straight to her hips. Wisecracking pen-for-hire Jaine Austen is back-and she's about to discover that working on the set of a Hollywood sitcom is no laughing matter. Especially after a little sleuthing turns up a whole bunch of people who harbored less-than-loving feelings towards the svelte Stacy.īut Jaine had better wrangle her clues quickly, before a crafty killer catches on-and puts a whole new spin on her ghost writing career. Sure, Howard's awkward, eccentric, and a tiny bit odd. On Valentine's Day, Howard finds Stacy bludgeoned to death with a Thigh Master-and is quickly named the prime suspect. To Jaine's surprise, the letter is a success-the unlikely Romeo lands a date! But his triumph is, sadly, short-lived. The fact that he's never actually met the woman gives Jaine pause-but she soon overcomes her misgivings, warms up her computer, and starts pitching woo on Howard's behalf. His request is simple enough: a letter proclaiming his undying love for Stacy Lawrence, a gorgeous aerobics instructor. No one seems to need her help more than geeky, gawky Howard Murdoch.

But when one of the love connections she made is broken up by murder, Jaine finds herself freelancing free-of-charge-and uncovering more than she bargained for. Writer-for-hire Jaine Austen has penned them all.
