Now I'm giving away a copy of Table for One by Georgiana Daniels

To enter for a chance to win this fun, chick-lit style novel, simply post a comment and I'll put your name in the hat. I'll draw a winner on Wednesday.



About the book:

Successful stockbroker Lucy Brocklehurst hasn’t had a date in four years. In a town where the ratio of single women to men is 7:1, she’s determined to wait on God for the perfect mate—-as long as it’s the hot new youth pastor at her church.

Lucy will do anything to get his attention, including volunteering for the youth group. Through a series of misadventures on the teen outings, Lucy finds herself falling in love with a kindhearted chaperone named Edgar Flowers. But when their relationship grows serious, Lucy discovers the lengths his recently-widowed mother will go to in order to keep them apart. What starts out as harmless interference turns into an all out tug of war, with Edgar as the prize!

Will Lucy crumble under the scrutiny of her would-be mother-in-law? Or can Lucy and Edgar’s budding romance survive the schemes of his meddling mom?

My thoughts:

I just started this book yesterday but I've read through Chapter 6 and I think it's very funny and entertaining. The author does a great job with the setting. When the character is at work you feel like you're with her there. When she's at church, the same thing. And the way the author jokes and comes up with the one liners is hilarious. That pastor is a real cutie, too. But the best part about this book so far is the characterization. It's a fun read, no doubt. Expect a review in the next week or so. If I didn't have to work full time it wouldn't take me as long to finish! :)
