"Meet Victoria Hart. She's sassy, sparkling, and taking the Chicago dating scene by storm as a professional "wingwoman"?a modern-day matchmaker hired to help clueless guys find Miss Right. With nights on the town, drinks on the house, and clothes on the credit card, Vic is loving her glam singletini lifestyle. There's just one little problem ... okay, maybe two. She needs to keep her new career a secret, and the first of her friends just got engaged?ENGAGED! Vic isn't sure she's ready to be that grown up yet?she likes her life the way it is. Not that being a wingwoman is all wine and roses. With clients ranging from cowboys and would-be porn stars to her best friend's boss, Vic quickly discovers this late-night Cupid gig is trickier than she anticipated. To make matters worse, she somehow agrees to help plan her friend's swanky wedding, complicated by a never-ending to-do list and a very shady groom. With too many wingwoman gigs, bridezilla demands, and more and more friends eyeing the altar, Vic is starting to feel a little lost, a lot confused, and completely bombarded by love connections. Does she really want to stay solo ... or use those wingwoman skills for herself?"--Publisher's description.
