"Emily is an advertising executive who is marketing the perfume Sizzle. Richard is the number cruncher who has to keep Emily within her budget.When Emily and Richard get together they are so hot they sizzle. The problem is, Richard has selective hearing. When Emily decides to fight for her love by curing his deafness things really reach boiling point. This was the first book I read of Jennifer Crusie .Not only was the sex hot but the characterization complementary to the plot. The humour laced throughout the book also kept it moving at a fast pace."
