Four high school friends and a pact-every girl marries her ideal man by thirty, or be prepared for matchmaking.

The Bride-to-Be: Carlotta " Charli" Rossi, last of a dying breed-the thirty-year-old virgin. It' s love at first sight when Grant takes her out, but is it only one-sided?

The Prospective Groom: Grant Sterling, handsome, rich and worldly lawyer-confirmed bachelor. A mousy unassuming woman is exactly what he' s looking for. He thinks he' s got it all in Charli.

The Hitch: Grant needs a wife if he' s going to make partner in his stuffy law firm. A marriage of convenience without sex or other personal involvements is the ideal answer. Never did he think Charli would turn into a sexy siren, or that he would fall in love with her...!

The Wedding Ring: Four high school friends and a pact-every girl marries her ideal man by thirty or be prepared for matchmaking.

The Bride-To-Be: Raven Muldoon, therapist by vocation and aspiring stand-up comic by desire, realizes her friends in the Wedding Ring have made a grave mistake...and that's no joke.

The Prospective Groom: Brent Radley, a man who looks like perfect husband material-until Raven meets his sexy-as-sin younger brother...and Brent turns out to be less than devoted...

The Hitch: Brent's brother, Hunter, is no choirboy, but not even he would steal his brother's woman-no matter how tempted he might be. It's up to Raven to turn the tables....

The Wedding Ring: Four high school friends and a pact-every girl marries her ideal man by thirty or be prepared for matchmaking.

The Bride-to-Be: Amanda Coppersmith, successful at everything but marriage. There' s absolutely no way she' s going to let the Wedding Ring fix her up- been there, done that! She' s determined to outwit her matchmaking pals.

The Prospective Groom: Nick Stephanos, sexy New York taxi driver and the perfect choice for phony fiance . Except there' s a lot more to Nick than meets the eye-Amanda' s in particular.

The Hitch: How can a simple fake engagement get so complicated? Nick is willing to be bought and everyone' s completely taken in. So why is Amanda having such a hard time remembering that Nick' s not really her man? And why isn' t there an easy returns policy on fiances?

Published 1 February 2001

The Wedding Ring: Four high school friends and a pact-every girl marries her ideal man by thirty or be prepared for matchmaking.

The Bride-to-Be: Sunny Bleecker, a woman who has waited tables at Wafflemania for twelve years...and waited the same amount of time for her knight in shining armor to rescue her from that. She' s still waiting...

The Prospective Groom: Kirk Larsen is starting a new life in his old home town. Between teaching and raising a toddler, he' s not really looking for romance, but being with Sunny is as easy as it was twelve years ago. Almost.

The Hitch: Sunny is dubious when The Wedding Ring fixes her up with her high school sweetheart, but her doubts soon evaporate. Sunny' s suddenly walking on air, dreaming of a white picket fence and a passel of kids, but she' s about to come down to earth with a crash. Because Kirk has news that she doesn' t want to hear...
