Claire Dellafield is on a mission. She's checking out New York singles bars, gathering data for her thesis in human mating behavior. Little did she anticipate that reprising her father's famous study would require dodging bar brawls and hauling an eccentric neighbor's neurotic poodle to therapy.
Only, little does she guess that her roommate's "man-magnet" skirt will net her more test subjects than she can handle. Or that she'll fall for rugged Mitch Malone, an undercover cop who can't resist taking Claire to bed-even though he might end up taking her to jail, too. . . .
Suddenly, every male in Manhattan is clamoring to volunteer. Shadowing a prim academic soon leaves Mitch battling his libido while dodging a stick of pepperoni in Central Park.
