Jennie has been a widow for two years.

Jennie's twelve-year-old son thinks it's about time she started dating, and so does her best friend, Angela. So with Angela's help, Jennie signs up to an online dating site. Within hours, she has several dates lined up for the week. Surely there will be one Prince Charming in the bunch. And if not, it's only one date, right? How bad could it be?

      Widowed two years ago, Jenny is finally ready to date again. Her best friend, Angela, is thrilled, and even Jenny's 12-year-old son, Ryan, is glad she's looking for someone to spend time with. Jenny takes two weeks off from work and, using the dating website E-Galaxy, schedules several daytime dates at her favorite coffee shop. Unfortunately, some dates start out badly, and the rest only take a few hours to get there. Operation Prince Charming is tanking, and Jenny misses her husband as the two-week clock ticks down and she inches toward hopelessness. With an Everytown setting, minimal character development, and a pat, happy ending, Campbell (The Bootlegger's Goddaughter, 2017) keeps readers focused on an easy-to-follow plot that's predictable, with some humorous departures. This is great for adult newcomers to reading or the English language as well as anyone who enjoys zipping through a lighthearted read in a single, short sitting.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)
