Quick--Before it's Gone!
In 'Quick Fixes' Shakey Smith introduces us to Lillian McMullen, aka Quick, an 18 year old college dropout.
Quick wants to live her own life and to love the right person. Though her impulsiveness has often thrown the train off the tracks with various members of her wealthy family, Quick's newest epiphany concerns the young man she'll be marrying tomorrow--she doesn't love him.
Her real love, Cotton, is nearly twice her years, but she's loved him nearly all of her life. She just has 24 hours to make Cotton see that they fit, avoid her parents' plans for a few hours of ceremony condemning her to a partnership she'll regret for the rest of her life, and pray to whomever will listen that things will turn out right.
A most enjoyable read, keeps you on your toes, and your heart
