From the author of CUPID AND DIANA, a New York Times Notable Book of the Year, comes a romantic comic novel that's serious at heart. Nicky Malone, a public relations flack, hasn't seen ex-beau Tony Boltanski in five years, until a contentious, high-stakes and slightly nutty nurses strike brings them together again. Despite their separation and the fact that they're both seeing other people, they still share the same interests: fighting for the little guy - in this case, the beleaguered nurses at a small Catholic hospital that has just been taken over by a giant health care organisation - and fighting each other. While struggling with the strike and her growing feelings for the still exasperating, pigheaded Tony, Nicky also tries to cope with her nagging widowed mother who desperately wants Nicky married, a slick boss who promises clients more than Nicky can possibly deliver, and a scattered assistant who has read too many articles about cutthroat career women. But for Nicky, those troubles pale in comparison to dealing with a bumbling romance between her cousin Louise, a professional matchmaker with a chaotic love life, and her cousin Johnny, whose love for Louise hasn't stopped him from becoming engaged to someone else.
