Sam Stark has just been left at the altar again -- for the third time. It's obvious that his relationships will never work out. So when he's interested in caterer Desdemona Wainwright he decides to "go with the flow" rather than make any plans for the future. But analytical, logical Sam is out of place with Desdemona's outgoing, theatrical, loyal family. It's going to be a miracle if this relationship makes it past a few dates. Especially when Sam starts to believe that Desdemona's brother might be a computer hacker and thief.
I listened to the audio version of this book. I enjoy Krentz's books and enjoyed this one also. However, it felt very dated to me. It was published in the mid 1990s when computers and the Internet were first becoming truly popular. It was very strange to hear them wax on about personal digital assistants when we are so used to smart phones today. It probably wouldn't have been so noticeable if Sam's character hadn't been a computer techie in the book.
