Stick Shift

By Mary Leo
Stick Shift by Mary Leo digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Girl, get it in gear!

Lucy Mastronardo is heading in the right direction—good job, good apartment, good fiancé—until a detour to Naples throws her off the map! Sure, she’s just days away from tying the knot, but her next big promotion hits a roadblock and Lucy can’t steer away from the last-minute business trip. With reassurances to everyone, including her vanilla-pudding-cup fiancé, she vows to return before she has to say, “I do.”

Lucy’s certain she’ll have everything sorted out in no time. But then her drop-dead due dates are laid to waste by the wacky staff and the tempting restaurant owner next door. The one who makes her think there’s more to life than deadlines and rules.

Will Lucy continue her drive in automatic—or will she take control and learn to downshift…?

Stick Shift Reviews

2.5
“Let's see...Girl meets rude Latin lothario on international flight, sees him several more times while on business in Naples, realizes she doesn't love her fiancee and calls off wedding. And it turns out that her high-maintenance, over-stressed tendencies are exactly what this womanizing chef needs to settle down. Lame.”
