Keeping Up With the Joneses — Patricia Ellis

THE LAST STRAW...

Joanna Jones found her new neighbor, Joshua Jones, positively infuriating. He was actually amused that the postman kept putting the perfume-scented letters addressed to Mr. J. Jones into Ms. J. Jones's mailbox. He got a kick out of the fact that his mangy mutt and Joanna's pedigreed cocker spaniel had fallen madly in love. And he seemed delighted when strangers assumed Joanna was his wife -- much to her dismay!

Easygoing Joshua tried to convince his uptight neighbor to lighten up, though she obviously didn't want his advice. But when he discovered she was considering marriage to a man she didn't love, he just had to stop her. After all, a terrific woman like Joanna deserved an equally terrific man...come to think of it, a man like Josh himself!
