The Deflowering of Rhona Lipshitz

Rhona Lipshitz of Queens, New York is eleven days away from becoming Mrs. Stuart Martin Weiner. The Temple has been booked, gowns have been fitted and beauty parlor appointments have been made. Only one small problem stands in the way of this perfect marriage: Rhona doesn't love Stuie, and she knows she never will. With no way out, Rhona gamely counts down the days to the dreaded event...and finds herself falling madly, hopelessly in love with a wonderful man. Too bad it's not Stuie.

"A truly unique and perceptive voice. It touched my heart - so real and beautiful."
Lesli Linka Glatter, film and television director ("Now and Then," "ER," "West Wing")
"In Rhona Lipshitz, Lisa Doctor has crafted a delightfully original character of indomitable spirit, who pulls at your heart. You'll cheer for Rhona in her joy and pain."
Allison Lyon Segan, co-producer ("Speed," "Saving Private Ryan")
"Pitch-perfect reverberation of the time (1971) and the place (Queens, New York)."
Charlie Haden, Grammy-winning jazz musician/composer
