SOMETHING BLUE

Darcy Rhone gets anything she wants, especially men. Blessed with unusual beauty, but a self-centered personality, she's convinced the world revolves around her--until she loses her fiancé to her best friend at the age of 29. Jennifer Wiltsie depicts the playful tension of sexual banter when Darcy's retaliatory affair begins. Wiltsie's portrayal of Darcy as petulant and self-absorbed is so realistic that she becomes a character you love to hate until an unwanted pregnancy produces more than a baby. Wiltsie's frank and funny characterizations give the impression of a cast of narrators as she glides seamlessly between masculine and feminine roles in this engaging story.
