Chicago native, Griff Ross, is a writer doing a travel guide on Missouri when he cracks a tooth while in Poplar Bluff.  He gets an emergency appointment with the local dentist,  Junior Atkinson, expecting a man.  He is surprised to find Junior is a woman.  And he hears, as he goes under anesthesia, that she is dieing, is a virgin, and wants to experience sex before she goes. After he recovers and thinks about it, he decides he is the man for the job....only to discover after the fact that he totally misunderstood. She Isn't the one dieing, it is her clock. And they didn't use protection.Laska has done an amazing job of fleshing out the personalities and lifestyles of Junior and Griff, as well as applying a liberal dose of humor to what could have been a very bad situation. I loved the book and will check out other works by Laska.
