Fresh out of her most recent disaster of a relationship, Annie Long has a revelation: If you can't find the perfect man, why not create him And so she does. Together with her best friends, who are business partners, Annie sets out to create the most intriguing product their interactive DVD and video game company has ever seen. Instead of a silly video game, Paragon Technology is going to give every woman what they want - Joe Video, the perfect man. A man to listen when you want him to listen, talk when you want him to talk (always saying exactly the right thing), and surrender the remote control without a thought. So Annie hires a devastatingly gorgeous actor to play Joe Video in their interactive DVD. The only problem is whether she can resist his charm too. But is the "perfect" man all he's cracked to be Because Matt, her co-creator and ex- boyfriend, is proving himself to be more perfect than Joe Video could ever be.
Born on April Fool's Day, Candy Halliday says it isn't any wonder that she's always preferred a little laughter with her happily ever after. Candy found her own Mr. Right on a blind date to a Halloween party. Candy -- dressed as a KISS punk-rocker with her face painted Gene Simmons-style. The man brave enough to marry her -- dressed more conservatively as a cowboy. Blending love and laughter in the stories she writes is a dream come true for Candy.
