Lucy Brocklehurst, a stockbroker, is almost thirty and still not married. She is a Christian and finds herself at a church with a 7:1 ratio of single women to single men. One of the single men is the handsome and sporty youth pastor. The other is a plain geek of a man, who lives with his overbearing mother.

Edgar Flowers is a Junior High math teacher and has a heart for God. Edgar has been praying for a wife and knows that Lucy should be his. Can he convince Lucy that she belongs with him? Will his mother ever accept the woman that he loves?

Table for One is a hilarious read. Georgiana Daniels wrote some down to earth characters in this book, and I had no problem believing the story. It felt like a good friend telling you about how she met her husband. Lucy is someone I would be a friend with, klutzy and funny. Edgar's mother would make any woman hug her mother-in-law and thank them for being so kind. Edgar is sweet and patient; he is the underdog you have to root for.

I could tell from page 1 that I would adore this book and I wasn't disappointed. The main character is endearing, quirky and loveable. And don't even get me started on the hero! He's almost as charming as his mother is horrid. And that's really saying something. She brings new meaning to the expression "Monster in Law." Remember Georgiana Daniels' name. She's sure to be a new force in the world of chick lit.

I LOVE Lucy, and you will too after reading this fresh, funny new novel by budding author Georgiana Daniels!

Don't miss this fun read of hopeless love, crazy mother-in-laws and snarky church members. =)

You'll relate to Lucy's struggles as she seeks to find Mr. Right, and cheer her on from the beginning to end! Full of laugh out loud moments, this novel will keep you reading until late into the evening. Enjoy!

Table for One was laugh out loud funny. I mean really funny. I felt bad for poor Lucy who seemed to make more bad decisions than good ones, but I loved her anyway. She was a great heroine. Edgar was a fabulous hero, too, even if he was a momma's boy. I don't think I would've handled his mother as graciously as Lucy had. My favorite line in the story is Cricket. Cricket. That is during a part of the story where everything stops and no one makes a sound. Isn't that a fabulous way to describe how things go quiet and everyone stares at you. :) I totally loved the author's voice and I think she did a great job with the first person present tense point of view. That is very difficult, but she pulled it off. And this story was mercifully free of cliches. The hilarious thoughts and comments that Lucy had were incredibly well-thought out and very funny. This story touched my heart and tickled my funny bone at the same time. The spiritual arc was superb. I just can't say enough good things about Table for One. I'm thoroughly impressed!

I enjoyed this book cover-to-cover! Lucy's exploits had me laughing out loud more than once. These fun characters will live with you for days after you finished their story. I look forward to more and more by this wonderful author.

Really I do! Lucy Brocklehurst is a quirky, lovable character with zany dating mishaps that make you really feel for her. She's trying to make a living and pave a way in a male dominated field. As a Stockbroker she's pretty good. In love and relationships, she needs some help!

Then she meets the hot new youth pastor, but her plans for love are foiled and the geeky guy in the pew across from her comes to her aid more than once.

Wrought with trouble in her personal and professional life, will Lucy find true love before her thirtieth birthday, or be single and homeless?

Georgiana does funny well and I can't wait to read more from this up and coming author! If you're looking for a quick, fun,summer read then Table for One is my recommendation!

Georgiana Daniels is a fearless writer when it comes to putting her heroine into tight spots. Lucy (aptly named, for she reminds me a bit of Lucille Ball)can't seem to go trouble-free for more than a few minutes. I loved Lucy, and I think others will too.

I purchased this product based on the positive reviews here. Yes, it is funny at times, but I did not like Lucy, the main character. She acts like as love-struck teenager and her immaturity bothered me right up until the unrealistic ending. She was unbelieveable as a thirty year old woman. I only wish I had purchased this book in paper (as opposed to Kindle) as then I could at least give it to my friend's college age daughter who might enjoy it more then I did.
