Do you remember “I Love Lucy?”  Have you ever “opened mouth, inserted foot? “  Enter the world of Lucy Brocklehurst.

Lucy, a stockbroker, hasn’t had a date in 4 years, and she is almost 30- years-old. Maybe the new hot youth minister is just the guy….

Lucy will do anything to get his attention.  She is a complete disaster in every situation. Lucy soon realizes she needs to let go and let God handle the situations, or can she?

In order to make this book, the characters all play a role--from Lucy and the youth pastor, to  her best friend  who gives straight advice, to her match making mother, co workers and Edgar the geek , to his cantankerous mother.

Lucy finds love.  Her mother is not happy about her choice. Will Momma win or will Lucy?

From the very first paragraph I found myself so involved with this book I couldn’t quit reading. I laughed until I cried. Ms. Daniels has a way of bringing all the characters to life in this book, and one can relate to the perils of Lucy. You cannot help but have feelings for Lucy and Edgar. Ms. Daniels has written a most wonderful read.

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.
