Looking for a little You’ve Got Mail magic and Fools Rush In sizzle without all the spice?
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a young single woman in a small town is OBVIOUSLY in need of matchmaking. Whether she wants it or not. Well? This young woman neither needs it, nor wants it.
When Daniel, our new youth minister, asks me for help to put on the upcoming Valentine’s Banquet, EVERYONE is way too excited.
Please, like anything’s going to happen between us. He smiles waaaaay too much!
However, when he explains the banquet will raise funds for foster children finding their forever homes? Sign me up! But that’s ALL I’m signing up for, got it?
Listen, I have my reasons for this not getting romantic. I have more than enough on my plate.
I’ve centered my life around helping other people clean up the mess they’ve made of their marriages so their children can heal. And I’m really hoping to convince my dad’s firm to take on more cases that will help those who are hurting, not just jerks who pay well.
See? It’s essential I don’t get distracted.
Love and marriage take time, attention, and trust. I’ll just leave that to my roommates. And so what if we have to fly to Vegas for some wedding shenanigans for my most ridiculous roommate? I can carry work with me.
See? Not getting distract—
But then the elevator stalls out.
With Daniel and I trapped together.
And I find myself asking, what happens when you’re DETERMINED to stay distant, safe, and detached, but you don’t?
People think I’m a risk-taker, but when it comes to my heart, my future, my plans? I can’t. Can I?
The Trials and Triumphs of a Love has all the romcom fun that will keep you laughing and swooning as the witty banter sparks some hilarious chemistry.
