A Night In Brooklyn (Paperback)

(EVIE WALL)(Semi-autobiographical fiction) It was just a quick trip to New York for a touch of romance in the otherwise reclusive life of Ellie Russ. She left Savannah for a day in Brooklyn, dinner and the Metropolitan Opera as in her favorite film, Moonstruck. Best laid plans ... The moment she entered Giancarlo's Restaurant, a crazy procession of events began. From a comical mishap and a black eye to a missed flight that saved her from a fiery plane crash, her fortune was linked to Stan Ponti, restauranteur and firefighter. As they gave aid to the few crash survivors, the devastation they saw led Ellie and Stan to reaffirm their own lives through reckless lovemaking. Her film fantasy began to materialize. Stan schemed to keep her in Brooklyn. Ellie had gone in search of a little vicarious romance. A Night In Brooklyn is the account of her journey, told with humor and insight, in her own eccentric narrative.
