A Matter of Design

By Ron Arbuckle

In this debut novel by Ron Arbuckle, romance is woven together with introspection and a dash of comedy. Ava and Max are lost to fate in the big city as she works to bring her second restaurant to life. A successful restauranteur and avid fantasy-romance bookworm who often fantasizes about herself as characters from her favorite novels, Ava long ago relegated love to the backburners, never imagining she might be in the middle of an epic love story herself. She's got a vision, a budget and no time to waste. The last thing she is ready for is for her life's plans to get complicated... and fast. Follow along in this thoughtful, fast-paced journey of self-discovery and reflection as our hopeless protagonist wrestles with mixing business with pleasure.
