Quirky and funny. A good read.

From the back cover:
“Theresa Falconetti has it all: brains, beauty, a quick wit, and her own PR business. To the deep disappointment of her large family, she never dates Italians, men from her old Brooklyn neighborhood, or professional athletes. Especially not athletes…

I really liked this one and have put Rachel Gibson on my TBR list. The characters are endearing (especially poor Georgeanne) and the story, while a little slow at times, is engaging.
