Book Description

April 1 2003 Red Dress Ink Novels
A Fancy Affair Bridal Salon
Forest Hills, Queens

"Did you know that one of your hips is higher than the other?" the seamstress asked me in a totally conversational tone.

"I didn't," I said. "I never knew that. But I'm glad you told me."

The seamstress had the decency to look embarrassed. She ducked her head back down and continued pinning.

Perhaps that had been the reason why Blind Dates One, Two and Three hadn't been interested. It wasn't the smoking, after all. It was my Hip Issue. And just my luck that Blind Date #4 was with a doctor, whose business it was to notice such deformities.

See Jane Date will speak to singles everywhere. At once warm and witty, this look into the life of 28-year-old assistant editor Jane Gregg, screams, "You are not alone!" Case in point: See Jane . . .

-- Endure two months of bridesmaid hell for her younger cousin's wedding
-- Brilliantly dodge being fixed up with Grammy's next-door neighbor by fibbing that she, um, already has a boyfriend
-- Date . . . like crazy to find one suitable guy to bring to said wedding

Okay, find one suitable guy to love. Was that so much to ask?

4.0 out of 5 stars Going In Blind April 22 2004
By mereph
Format:Paperback
Jane Gregg is a twenty-something assistant editor at Posh Publishing who gets a chance at a promotion. all she has to do is edit the memoir of Natasha Nutley. the same Natasha Nutley Jane knows from high school who made her life miserable. in a desperate attempt to impress Natasha, Jane makes up a very handsome, very rich, very fake boyfriend. when Jane's engaged cousin, Dana, hears the rumor, she tells Jane to bring the "new guy" to her wedding. now Jane has to find a stand-in boyfriend through blind dates to bring to the wedding or she'll look exactly like she feels...a desperate idiot.
i couldnt put this book down. it drew me in, from the first to last page. the array of different personalities in the book ensures that anyone can relate to at least one of the characters. See Jane Date is a must read for any fan of Chick Lit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Chick Lit at its best! Mar 13 2004
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Melissa Senate has summed up the wonderful world of dating that any woman in any city anywhere in the world can relate to. It is a quick and easy read filled with both humor and emotion. By the end of the book you are just pulling for Jane to find a great guy. You will be turning pages faster than you can read to see if she funds him. It reminded me of my sibgle days in city. I loved every page of it.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good read Jan 26 2004
Format:Paperback
There wasn't anything out of the ordinary about it but THAT'S what I liked! The heroine was REAL and I LIKED her. She had the everyday problems that most single women go through and she was easy to identify with. She also had an interesting job at Posh and her relationship with her friend/foe "The Gnat" held my interest as well. I found myself curious about what would happen at her blind dates and was rooting for one to work out!

I'd recommend this book. It's a nice story. Also, I really liked the ending, which doesn't happen too often.
