Molly is a divorced journalist nearing 40. She is in a comfortable relationship with her boyfriend Russell, a chiropractor. She writes for a rag magazine with crazy antic assignments like skydiving and training to be a Rockette. She aspires of being a published author and having an exciting romantic relationship. She is given an assignment to write about romance which makes her realize she does not know what it is. The piece she turns in is pathetic and sarcastic. What will it take for Molly find real romance?

The book has a steady pace, the characters are developed, and it is written in the third person point of view. I love Molly and her snarky self. She is quirky and creative, knows what she wants, but not how to get there. This was a great read and I look forward to reading more books by this author.
