It's easy to forgive the awkward premise of Benson's latest (The Way Home), because her protagonists--her heroine especially--are so appealing. Kimberla Washington, a reporter for the D.C.--based Urban Style, has been put in charge of her magazine's new "Nicest Guy in America" contest. The improbable part is that the men must be nominated by women who have dumped them. Reggie Stevens, a computer consultant in Atlanta who receives multiple nominations, is understandably reluctant to participate. (Publishers Weekly)
