There are worse places a saucy single gal could be stranded in the biggest winter storm to hit southwestern Virginia in years. Here at Luchesi's restaurant, Renee can fill up on hot breadsticks and spiked mocha cappuccino--and she can check out Giovanni Anthony Luchesi, the finest man this side of the Blue Ridge Mountains. But damn, if it doesn't stop snowing soon, she's gonna wind up in big trouble, what will all the amaretto and candlelight. Days later, the ice isn't all that's melting in Roanoke. Renee's fallen for the whitest white boy she's ever met. And she feels like she's living a Julia Roberts movie with an interracial twist and gentle Giovanni, with his slow, seductive hands and spicy kisses, as her leading man. Renee always was a sucker for happy endings. Now, with a make-do ring from Giovanni on her finger, her own happy ending seems guaranteed. What can possibly go wrong? Riotous, ardent, and packed with surprises, Renee and Jay is Romeo and Juliet for the millennium --a tale that proves true love can turn up in the last place--and face--you'd ever expect to find it ..
