'HILARIOUS AND WILDLY IMAGINATIVE; A SCREAM FROM START TO FINISH' WENDY HOLDEN

Is it possible to have it all? If by 'all' you mean a succession of irritants building up into one great mess, then that's exactly what Cassandra French has got. A mother who's under house arrest for fraud. A blonde, yoga instructor of a friend who's the sort of man magnet you want your boyfriend staying well clear of. A boring and highly frustrating job as a lawyer for a Hollywood film studio. And three men in her basement.

Actually, the three men are proving to be the least of her worries.

They're (ahem) enrolled in Cassandra French's Finishing School for Boys, a school that, after one bad date too many, Cassandra founded to train young men into better human beings.

The curriculum includes colour co-ordination, behaviour on dates and, occasionally, sex.

Everything is going swimmingly well, until she enrols Jason Kelly, the studio's biggest star. Suddenly, it seems, Cassie is in well over her head...

Reviews for Cassandra French's Finishing School For Boys

'Sex and the City meets Misery' * Houston Chronicle * 'Eric Garcia has written a great satirical twist on chick lit.' * Chicago Tribune * 'Prepare for a twisted tale ... Garcia pushes the limit of laugh-or-gasp fun as Cassandra trains her former dates in the skills of woman-pleasing. Warped? Yes. But who doesn't want a well-behaved man?' * Marie Claire * 'Garcia has a knack for pointing out the absurdities of both the female mind and Tinseltown. And though the situation soon turns hilariously outrageous, anyone who's been on a really bad date can relate. A-' * Entertainment Weekly * 'A hilarious parody ... Unspeakable fun' * New York Times *
