William had re-purposed his grief into a memoir that becomes a National Book Award finalist, and he is content to lead a silent, unfulfilled life … … until Brittany Taylor limps off the Appalachian Trail onto his property, enters the uncharted depths of William’s soul, and turns William’s orderly world completely upside down. At 32, intelligent, free-spirited, fun, spontaneous, and highly unpredictable, Brittany Taylor is a paralegal and law student from Baltimore who agrees to attend the National Book Awards ceremony as part of a single date with William in Manhattan to get back at her on-again, off-again boyfriend Deandre. After William meticulously plans the “best Wednesday date in the history of New York City” down to the hour—and Brittany destroys William’s “date itinerary” in a matter of minutes—William wonders if his “Cinderella” will choose the right prince. Laugh-out-loud funny, poignant, and as real as true romance gets, THE DATE ultimately proves that no matter how many of our dreams die, we sometimes get to keep what we wish for.
