30 Love: A Novel

by Ran Walker

Overview

Dizzy and Lailah are life-long best friends who, on a whim, make a deal at the age of 20 that if they are both single by the time they turn 30, they will simply marry each other.

While Lailah has long since forgotten this promise, Dizzy hasn't. When he proposes and Lailah reluctantly accepts, the road to the altar is anything but easy.

In the vein of Love and Basketball and Brown Sugar, Ran Walker brings you the guy's point-of-view in this hilarious romantic comedy about the wonders of an impromptu engagement.
