Lädt ... The First Date Prophecyvon Kate Tamberelli
   Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch.  Madison_Fairbanks | Jul 8, 2023 |   with a psychic's prophecy that makes them question fate and destiny. This is a contemporary romance that is written by the married couple of Danny and Kate Tamberelli. The married authors enriched the book with situations that are based on their own real-life experiences. This book brings some quirkiness and '90s nostalgia that makes it entertaining. I liked the progression of the couple's relationship, though there were certain actions taken that I didn't like even if they were necessary in the story. Overall, an enjoyably nostalgic romance book. ** Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the review copy.

A fiercely funny and heartfelt Brooklyn-set rom-com featuring two talented romantic misfits whose first date ends with a psychic's prophecy that is equal parts great fortune and certain doom-and sends them on a search for answers to some of life's big questions, including whether they'll throw caution-and fate-to the wind, trust their instincts and write their own futures? From co-authors and real-life partners Kate and Danny Tamberelli. Brooklyn-based aspiring writer Lucy Minninger has no trouble putting the comedy in her rom-coms. It's the romance part of the equation that's the problem. But even as the rejection slips pile up, and her second dates dwindle, Lucy refuses to give up hope-or her HeartThrobs? dating profile . . . Former child star Rudy Riziero made his mark on some of the most popular kids shows of the ?90s. But that early success has pigeonholed him into a stand-up routine riffing on his past work, while the slick single life he envisioned was clearly a fantasy. He's actually ready for a relationship, if he could just find someone uninterested in who he used to be . . . When Lucy and Rudy match online, they're eager to meet. But after their first date ends in a psychic's prophecy that is equal parts great fortune and certain doom, their flirty quips end and their search for answers to some of life's big questions begins: Is there really one person for everyone? Do destinies really intertwine? Where can you find the best tacos in Brooklyn? And when it matters most, will they throw caution-and fate-to the wind, trust their instincts-and write their own futures? "Romance, comedy, tacos, psychics, life, death, and love-The First Date Prophecy has it all.A beautiful, fun, and complex love story told by a beautiful, fun, and complex couple." -Screenwriters Emily V.
