About the book
Lucille runs a secretarial agency very efficiently. She's all set to go to Paris, but first she has to meet with one troublesome client, a professor who just can't keep a secretary, even her best ones. When she meets him, she totally understands. He's impossible. The situation is impossible. But her professional streak demands that she finish the job before joining her aunt and fiancée in Paris. But even though he’s impossible, there is something about the professor that gets to her. Not my favorite of this author, as the professor is a little too much; but still very entertaining and clean fun.
