Love and Other Recreational Sports
By John Dearie

   Jack Lafferty is stunned when his fiancée unexpectedly breaks up with him. He now finds himself thrown back into the single social scene. Being a handsome, successful Wall Street Banker should have made finding that special someone an easy task, unfortunately the opposite is true. With each date he suffers through, he finds himself closer to swearing off all women. Could the price of finding true love be worth all the hassle?

    Corporate Attorney, Sarah Mitchell finds herself attracted to Jack. His creative side of being an inspiring writer appeals to her artist soul. Can she break through the fortress that's built high around his heart? If so, will she be the one to convince him love is worth any sacrifice?

   John Dearie's fresh male perspective has put a unique spin on a modern day, true to life romance. Its lighthearted appeal will leave you in stitches as you discover all the many zany adventures it offers. Single women take note, this view of dating is not to be missed.
