Can he commit?
An interesting take on how to find love when you really don't want to find it but you do. Told from the male point of view, the book takes on themes of masculinity, maturity and commitment. Hubie is a food show host who has virtuality no idea why he should commit to anyone. His is a three month rule and then it's on to the next "morsel" - food is a big metaphor in the book. Then he meets Janine who seems to share his noncommittal stance on romance.

He comes across her on his trips through Europe and then about a year later in Utah. Eventually she comes to LA where Hubie lives and he makes another connection. Hubie is struck by this attraction. What could it mean? What we encounter in this rom/com is a very immature man's fear of commitment. As the story progresses Hubie wrestles with his growing attraction. When Janine suffers an injury, Hubie must finally make a decision. The conclusion is fairly obvious.

As corny as the story is, this is a fairly good read. Hubie's deficits aside, he's a normal person who just wants to be loved but isn't quite sure how to go about it.

My thanks to NetGalley and Random House for Arantina me access to this ARC.
