That isn’t the case for Peggy Adams. Peggy is in Sin City celebrating a bachelorette party for a friend who is getting hitched. The morning that she is scheduled to depart from Vegas and head back home to New York, she awakens in a strange beg lying next to an unrecognizable stranger. She carefully picks up her belongings and catches her plane home. No harm, no foul - or so she thinks. She returns home to make up with her live-in boyfriend (they fought prior to the trip because he has commitment issues), returned to work at her store and her average life. Until she receives a call from a man named Luke who claims that they were married over the weekend in Vegas. Annulment anyone? That is easier said then done, especially since Luke’s great aunt Abby makes them an offer that they just can’t refuse.
This was such a fun story. It’s the boy and girl meet in Vegas while being absolutely inebriated, tying the knot and then dealing with the consequences of their wild night (which obviously they can’t remember). Peggy was a very witty, likeable and relatable character. Luke was as uptight and cold as you could expect from a WASP - but he was definitely an appealing character. I loved their love/hate relationship. All the problems that ensue could have easily been resolved had they just sat down and spoken to one another - but what fun would there be in that.
Overall, Mating Rituals of the North American WASP was a very entertaining and enjoyable read. So grab it the next time you want just a fun story or you’re heading to the beach - you won’t be disappointed. Plus who can resist that cover?
