Love Spell, Aug 2003
ISBN: 0505525496
Finance expert Frankie McGee takes a leave of absence to help save her Uncle Joe's professional wrestling business. However, she learns the business from the inside when the six-foot giantess portraying the amazonian character Tatiana the Tigress leaves for Hollywood just before a critical performance. Frankie takes over the role.
Wrestling superstar Black Jack Hudson is nearing retirement time, but would like to out with one championship belt. However, his wrestling partner, the masked Tatiana, looks great, but to Jack she does not know a wristlock from a wristwatch (paraphrasing Gorilla Monsoon on Ali). Driving him even crazier, Jack finds he is attracted to two women, his partner and Joe's dimes could not drop from her butt niece who demands he renew his contract.
This wrestling romance takes off faster than a flying drop kick from the first moment that Frankie learns about egos and feathers. The story line continues at this frantic pace through airplane spins and the off the rope antics of the cast. Though the characters are never developed outside the ring as much as their wrestling personas come across, fans of frenzied romantic romps will enjoy this off the top rope tale.
