April Serao's love life is much like a desert, dry, dusty and a little
cracked. Six years ago, her husband Sal died while having sex. That was
bad, but he was with her, so it could have been worse, however he hadn't
finished renovating the kitchen, so it really could have been better.
Now April's raising their three sons alone. Word got around about how
Sal met his unfortunate demise which has earned April a "killer good"
reputation. Because of it, most men put a considerable amount of
distance between her and them. Her mother Marie takes April to see a
local celebrity psychic, convinced Sal will talk to them. April knows
Sal hasn't held up his end of a conversation in a long time but goes
anyway because her mother is wiry tough, sports Cherry Cola #17 red hair
and is a force to be reckoned with. She's also a "Sicilian Guilt Trip"
ninja, and April knows she won't win the battle. April works as a
Technical Support Engineer at a company called Tin Cup Software. Her co
workers and occasional partners in crime are Rob and Marley. Rob has a
hologram perfect family and Marley passes the time by tweezing chin
hairs while talking to customers. She lives with a large multicolored
parrot named Rodney that she believes is going through teenage angst. An
out of state business associate asks April on her first date since
Sal's death and she soon finds herself struggling to balance her past,
her children and friends and the possibility of new love. Her life,
further complicated by a dead musician, a little latex and a few bad
guys becomes a rollicking laugh out loud read that you won't want to
miss.
