"Sparkling and witty ..." - Publishers Weekly. What do you do when your life isn't living up to your dreams? When the man you love is unavailable, and yet you long for a family, a home? What is the cost of compromising until the real thing comes along? Patty Ann Murphy says she's "Ms. Runner-Up" in life. She longs to be married and have a family, but is irresistibly drawn to the wrong man. Patty's frustration leads her to feelings she doesn't admire - jealousy of her beautiful friend Elaine, for instance. Patty longs more and more for the consolation of loving and being loved - until she can wait no more.
