Interested parties please meet at the McDonal Hotel at 11:00 am on March 1. If chosen, will need to pass a STD screen. Chosen applicant will be monetarily compensated upon positive pregnancy test.

Kathy is thirty-four years old, and her biological clock is tick-tick-ticking away. When she breaks off her long distance relationship with Luke because of his reticence to take the relationship to the next level, she decides to take matters into her own hands.

Luke didn't mean to drive her away. He just made a mistake. He had a plan. And apparently his grand Valentine's Day proposal wasn't going to cut it. Luke is desperate to stop Kathy before she makes the biggest mistake of her life, but will he get to Vegas in time?

Secondary characters from Chef's Delight, Kathy and Luke continue their story in this new installment of Serendipity, a novella around 23 thousand words.
