Product Description

By Kelsey Kilgore--A delightful new voice for lovers of chic-lit and romance... Would you let your mother take the reins of your dating life? Lark-a twentysomething, strawberry-blond, freckle-faced Texan-has had enough of dating geeky, weird guys. So when her sociable mama suggests she pre-screen some guys for Lark to date, Lark's just desperate enough to say yes. After all, with her three low-level jobs and the classes she's taking, she's not likely to snag The Someone anytime soon. But with her mama's Man Getting Project, she might just have a chance. When Brant Stephens, her old classmate who lives down the street, tells her she resembles a sick cat, she chalks it up to him being the most boring, mean, and predictable man on earth. He's got more degrees than she can remember, more annoying personality flaws than she can count, and all the gorgeous, shallow dates he could ever need. So why does he feel led to insult her every chance he gets? And what's with all the eccentric flamingos popping up around town? Sometimes life looks just a little gray. until the brilliance of popsicle orange peeks around the corner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious Fun!, August 20, 2008

By	Lynnette Bonner "www.lynnettebonner.com" (Everett, WA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The best Chick-Lit book I've ever read - bar-none! At one point I was laughing so hard tears were running down my face and I could hardly see the words.

I don't want to give away any of the content, but let me tell you this is one book you don't want to miss out on!

I'll be looking for more books from Kelsey Kilgore!

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME, September 22, 2008

By	Sheri Mast (Everett, WA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book was wonderfully written! It is so hilarious that you laugh until you cry! Now that's funny!!! Larkspur seems so real, just like you or me, and the problems that she faces and thoughts that she has mirror things that I have personally thought and felt. I couldn't put it down! Can't wait for more of Kelsey's books.

5.0 out of 5 stars As funny as her blog, August 25, 2008

By	Julie L. Gumm "jgumm" (Phoenix, AZ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As a faithful reader of Kelsey's blog "Holy Mama" ([...]) for a couple of years I wondered if I would find her first book as entertaining and witty as her blog writing.

Thankfully, "A Love for Larkspur" is laugh out loud funny and a delightful read. Can't wait for Kelsey's next book.
