| The rich atmosphere of South Carolina， Hilton Head and Charleston， is brought vividly to life by Dorothea Benton Frank， a South Carolina native who， with her exquisitely evocative prose， makes you smell the sea air， see the palmettos， and savor the sweet tea， but this time it comes with a side of antipasti. Hilton Head， a South Carolina retirement heaven—at least it s supposed to be， but for Big Al and Connie Russo， the move from New Jersey to this southern paradise has been fraught with just a few complications. Especially for their daughter， Grace. Well， that s what she likes to be called. Her family insists on Maria Graziella. Seriously， enough with the Neapolitan. That might have been okay in New Jersey， but now it s just plain silly， and Grace at thirty-two is， horror of horrors， still unmarried. No wonder her family drives her crazy. Well， that and the fact that she s living with the man she would marry if they both weren t so commitment phobic. Michael is a doctor and a scientist and Grace is pretty sure he s also an atheist. Over the years， Grace has become a bit ambivalent about her faith， but her family is as old-fashioned Italian as they come. So the stage is set for a major showdown that just might change Grace s outlook on life， family， and the New South. |
