Christmas Book Swag

Chick lit, yes, but it also has shinning reviews. The back has a review from Pam Houston, who is one of my favorite writers. The synopsis goes something like this:

Art-gallery assistant Jane Laine, recuperating after a failed love affair, really hates her odious martinet of a boss. So she is ready to go when famed sculptor Ian Rhys--Fitzsimmons conceives a project that will take him on a six-month tour. Assigned to accompany him and take care of gallery business, Jane becomes good friends with Ian, but continues to look for love in all the wrong places. This very Bridget Jones's Diary-like chick-lit novel turns laugh-out-loud funny when Jane's parents and their schnauzers are on the scene, especially during a Christmas dinner in Santa Fe during which schnauzer Elijah is the object of a bizarre ritual called "Pass the Schnauzer." Ian is an endearing character, kind and thoughtful in spite of his renown, and he is not even taken aback when Jane's aunt suggests he convert to the Lutheran faith and take up accounting. Andy Warhol quotes at the beginning of each chapter add to the alluring art-world ambience of Pace's novel. Diana Tixier Herald

I found this book after my ex made me play an elaborate guessing game of finding a book he had read. I knew by that time that it was a book about Andy Warhol, but not which one. I though this one looked interesting. The book he had read was,  Loner at the Ball of Life by Fred Lawrence.
