title: Ask Me Anything
author: Delbanco, Francesca
description: Twenty-six-year-old Rosalie Preston works as an advice columnist for GirlTalk magazine, but in her off-hours she pursues her true passion: the stage. Her fledgling theater troupe, the First Born Company, is a tight pack of friends that is starting to unravel as members find love and success. But when Rosalie comes to the attention of her best friend's suave father, she finds herself in a more complicated affair than those she untangles in her column. Elegant dinners, nights at the Pierre, and theater premieres can't distract Rosalie from the inevitabilities of growing up -- especially when a rumpled, rude Irish playwright insinuates himself into her life.
