Until The Real Thing Comes Along
Until The Real Thing Comes Along | Elizabeth Berg, Berg
2 posts | 5 read | 1 to read
Patty Murphy is facing that pivotal point in a woman's life when her biological clock ticks as insistently as a beating heart. Will she find Mr Right and start a family? But Patty is in love - with a man who is not only attractive and financially sound, but sensitive and warmhearted. There's just one small problem: He is also gay. Against her better judgment, and pleas from family and friends, Patty refuses to give up on Ethan. Every man she dates ultimately leaves her aching for the gentle comfort and intimacy she shares with him. But even as she throws eligible bachelors to the wayside to spend yet another platonic night with Ethan, Patty longs more and more for the consolation of loving and being loved. In the meantime she must content herself with waiting - until the real thing comes along . . .

Sweet Monkeys! What a boring and sad book! This chick is in love with a gay guy but the way that she just swims in her sorrow of him not loving her back for all her life it seems. Worse part is she brought a daughter into this situation. I hope she doesn't sit and mope around all her daughter's life crying about how her dad won't have sex with her because he's gay, because she knew this when she decided to have a kid with him. Ugh.

January is officially the month of Elizabeth Berg!!

Originally read this one 16 years ago, when I was pregnant with The Boy. Loved the story of Patty taking matters into her own hands and having the baby she'd always dreamed of. Loved it again the second time around.
