Review: More cringeworthy than romantic

Earlier this week, I read an advice column with a letter from a woman who was asking for advice on how to deal with her boyfriend's parents.  They were tired of waiting for their son to get married, so they'd taken it upon themselves to plan the wedding and just told the couple to show up.  It was a ridiculous situation, but I think the parents of the woman in this novel would, if they were real and read the column, have found themselves nodding with approval.Every time I began to get into the romance of this short story, I found myself so astonished by what the parents were up to and by the time I reached the end, I couldn't believe that adults would let themselves be treated this way.
