." . . characters I can relate to, who make me laugh out loud and hungry for dinner."-Mary Alice, co-star of Food Network's Ace of Cakes, about Melissa Ford's Life from Scratch
She had Mr. Right all sewn up . . . until Mr. Wonderful came along.
Ethan is smart, funny, kind, gentle, great with Beckett, Arianna Quinn's toddler son, a fantastic lover, and finally ready to settle down to a teaching job in Manhattan after years of nomadic work as a freelance photographer. Plus he's the brother of Arianna's matchmaking best friend, Rachel.
He's a truly special man, and the time seems right for him to move in to Arianna's apartment. But then he utters the "m" word . . . marriage. Even knowing that Arianna never wants to walk down the aisle.
Arianna is on the verge of a promotion at her fashion industry job. Suddenly her career is the central focus of her life-and into that focus walks Noah, a worldly, funny, sophisticated, and very successful writer for an award-winning television show. Their instant rapport leads to a design opportunity for Arianna and a friendship that slowly threatens the bonds she and Ethan hold dear.
