She was only the hottest item on Madison Avenue, that’s all. Carol Templeton, the huckster’s dream, the consumer’s morsel.

Carol would do almost anything to beat this handsome devil at his own game – even if it meant bearding the beast in his own bedroom. Lover Come Back is based on the hilarious screenplay by Stanley Shapiro and Paul Henning.
