How to Hook a Hottie by Tina Ferraro

At the young age of seventeen, Kate DelVecchio is determined to make a million dollars before she turns twenty. And only after this has been completed will she let herself think about starting a relationship or a family; she doesn’t want to end up like her mother. However, Kate somehow becomes the hottest guy in school’s date to the sports banquet, to her surprise and that of the entire school. No one understands how Kate was able to hook such a hottie, but they figure she must’ve don’t something right so they start coming to her for advice on how to hook their own hotties – for a fee of course. And thus Kate finds herself developing a Six-Point Plan for her new business and even closer to her goal. But when it comes to hotties, will Kate follow her own advice?

How to Hook a Hottie was a cute, short, and romantic book. I will admit I didn’t really like Kate’s character towards the beginning of the novel, mostly because she was way too focused on cash, but as the story progressed, she grew on me. I especially liked how she came through in the end. I thought it was funny how Kate didn’t realize what she really wanted (not her life plan) even when it was right in front of her, and I was glad that she wised up. My favorite part of this novel, though, was the hottie-hooking tips. Some of them were pretty random, and I have yet to test their effectiveness, but they did add humor to the story. All this made How to Hook a Hottie a very enjoyable story.

If you’re looking for a fast and fun read, I recommend How to Hook a Hottie. I look forward to reading Tina Ferraro’s other novel, Top Ten Uses for an Unworn Prom Dress, as well as her upcoming one, The ABC’s of Kissing Boys.
