Kendall

She doesn't have time for a relationship, but maybe she'd be up for a one-night stand. After all, he's just a stripper so no need to worry about the future… or a broken heart. Kendall's story explores the complicated lives of women in BOOK 1 of the romantic comedy series THE LONELY SPINSTERS CLUB.

Kendall Keogh has it all; a soaring law career, a bank account filled with cash, and an apartment overlooking the Chicago River. However, according to Grandma Bev, Kendall will never be truly happy until she has a man. Kendall dismisses her grandmother's unwanted advice, especially now that she's about to become a partner at Leder & Lincoln. Her life couldn't be better, at least that's what she thinks until she hosts her cousin Ruthie's bachelorette party.

What starts out as a fun girl's night quickly turns into an evening of debauchery when Officer Giovanni and Officer Lucas, two strippers posing as cops, knock on Kendall's door. Kendall can't keep her eyes off the dark and stoic Giovanni, and after a few too many Moscow mules, she fantasizes about being with him. Despite her feelings, they part ways before she can gather the courage to make a move.

Through the scheming of Kendall's recently divorced cousin Freya, the unlikely couple finally gets their chance. But when Kendall finds out Gio wants a relationship, she must reconsider her priorities as well as her lifelong definition of success.
