Opis

After poet Allie Young turned down her live-in boyfriend's sixth proposal, she knew she needed a change. Fleeing her hometown of Canton, Michigan, she has spent a year in Paris working at a literary magazine, and toying with her poetry manuscript. When the magazine closes it's doors, she realizes she must return. With no other options, she moves in with her widowed sixty-seven-year-old mother, who seems to live her life based upon sound bites from popular daytime talk shows and women's magazines, and who has embarked upon a rigorous dating life in Allie's absence. Floundering, and unable to complete her manuscript, Allie runs into her ex and his new fiancee', and is stunned by her spectacular engagement ring, which on its own, outshines all six of the rings he'd given Allie. With support from her best friend, handsome, gay bartender Phillip, she begins the adventure of putting her life back together, plotting about her ex, and constantly running into a certain odd stranger. Will Allie discover why she can't stop thinking about that engagement ring? Will Phillip find the love of his life at wine camp? Will Allie's mother become senior playmate of the month? Will Allie sell out before she's really even begun? All of these questions and more will be answered as you laugh and cry along with Allie in Falling Down Girl.
