Items related to Wedlocked
On what should be the happiest day of her life, Rebecca Ross is panic stricken. Rebecca has just wed Craig Jacobs, but she realizes she put more thought into choosing her florist than she did in choosing the man she's just pledged to love for the rest of her life.
Before Craig, Rebecca, a talented Long Island girl, dreamed of following in her grandmother's footsteps with an acting career. Unfortunately, she was cut down to size by years of disappointment, and by her first love-a Hollywood director. She returned to Long Island a lost and broken woman, and ended up in the last place she ever wanted: her old bedroom at her parents' house.
But Rebecca's mother, an overzealous convert to Judaism, has a long held dream too: marry off her three daughters to Jewish men. So no one is more thrilled than her when Rebecca meets and marries bon vivant Craig Jacobs, the man who has won over the whole family. Too bad they're all about to discover that underneath his charismatic shell, this Prince Charming is anything but!
"Wedlocked is a funny, warm, and engaging story about life, love, marriage and family. This page-turner is the perfect summer read!" -Wendy Walker, bestselling author of Social Lives

As we were announced into a resplendent ballroom filled with enthusiastic guests,
it was as if a UFO had plucked me out of my should-be life, only to plop me down in
some sort of bizarre alternate universe. For it had been less than a year earlier that I
was this close to seeing my dreams of fame, fortune, and romance come to fruition,
when they exploded in my face like a cruel joke.
With Craig's hand gripping mine, and the Starbright Orchestra's lead singer channeling
Frank Sinatra, the glorious, Gatsby-esque room that had so enchanted me,
began spinning even faster than my shell-shocked, post-nuptial brain. What some
brides know is that when you find yourself sashaying down the aisle on what's supposed
to be the happiest day of your life, things can sometimes turn bafflingly surreal.
Sensing something's terribly amiss, you chalk it up to jitters, refusing to acknowledge a
most unpleasant fact: the man standing before you in white tie and tails is far from the
soul mate you hoped for.
If I could have seen this truth in real time, I like to think I would have mustered the
courage to make a mad bolt from the chapel. But I was thirty-six--trampled, lost, and
romantically bankrupt--so the only thing running away that day was the train I was riding,
and I kept my seat, although I was destined to wreck.--from Wedlocked: A Novel
