  <description><![CDATA[There are a lot of things<br/> worse than being <em>Slightly</em> Engaged . . .<br/> being <em>entirely</em> broke, <em>completely</em> alone and <em>wholly</em> perplexed.  <p>It's been a year and a half since Tracey and Jack moved in together, and everything's totally perfect -- well, okay, <em>almost</em> perfect. There's still Tracey's mom, who says they're &quot;living in sin,&quot; and her friends, who are all smug, married and totally sure that there would already be a ring on Tracey's finger if she hadn't been in such a rush to cosign a lease. Even Tracey is beginning to wonder whether Jack really is looking for a permanent relationship, or whether she's just renting space in his heart.  <p>But just when Tracey's doubts are seriously raging out of control, Jack's mom lets her in on a secret -- he's just taken an heirloom diamond out of the family's safe-deposit box, which must mean that he's going to propose any day now.  <p>Okay, any week now . . .  <p>Any month now?</p></p></p></p>]]></description>

    <body><![CDATA[This book was okay...not great, not terrible, but somewhere in the middle.  It seemed like every other sentence out of Tracey's mouth was, &quot;Oh maybe he's going to propose to me now.&quot;  It got SO repetitive it was annoying.  If she wasn't so occupied with getting engaged and just going with ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/11584157">more...</a>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[There are a lot of things<br/> worse than being <em>Slightly</em> Engaged . . .<br/> being <em>entirely</em> broke, <em>completely</em> alone and <em>wholly</em> perplexed.  <p>It's been a year and a half since Tracey and Jack moved in together, and everything's totally perfect -- well, okay, <em>almost</em> perfect. There's still Tracey's mom, who says they're &quot;living in sin,&quot; and her friends, who are all smug, married and totally sure that there would already be a ring on Tracey's finger if she hadn't been in such a rush to cosign a lease. Even Tracey is beginning to wonder whether Jack really is looking for a permanent relationship, or whether she's just renting space in his heart.  <p>But just when Tracey's doubts are seriously raging out of control, Jack's mom lets her in on a secret -- he's just taken an heirloom diamond out of the family's safe-deposit box, which must mean that he's going to propose any day now.  <p>Okay, any week now . . .  <p>Any month now?</p></p></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[There are a lot of things<br/> worse than being <em>Slightly</em> Engaged . . .<br/> being <em>entirely</em> broke, <em>completely</em> alone and <em>wholly</em> perplexed.  <p>It's been a year and a half since Tracey and Jack moved in together, and everything's totally perfect -- well, okay, <em>almost</em> perfect. There's still Tracey's mom, who says they're &quot;living in sin,&quot; and her friends, who are all smug, married and totally sure that there would already be a ring on Tracey's finger if she hadn't been in such a rush to cosign a lease. Even Tracey is beginning to wonder whether Jack really is looking for a permanent relationship, or whether she's just renting space in his heart.  <p>But just when Tracey's doubts are seriously raging out of control, Jack's mom lets her in on a secret -- he's just taken an heirloom diamond out of the family's safe-deposit box, which must mean that he's going to propose any day now.  <p>Okay, any week now . . .  <p>Any month now?</p></p></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[There are a lot of things<br/> worse than being <em>Slightly</em> Engaged . . .<br/> being <em>entirely</em> broke, <em>completely</em> alone and <em>wholly</em> perplexed.  <p>It's been a year and a half since Tracey and Jack moved in together, and everything's totally perfect -- well, okay, <em>almost</em> perfect. There's still Tracey's mom, who says they're &quot;living in sin,&quot; and her friends, who are all smug, married and totally sure that there would already be a ring on Tracey's finger if she hadn't been in such a rush to cosign a lease. Even Tracey is beginning to wonder whether Jack really is looking for a permanent relationship, or whether she's just renting space in his heart.  <p>But just when Tracey's doubts are seriously raging out of control, Jack's mom lets her in on a secret -- he's just taken an heirloom diamond out of the family's safe-deposit box, which must mean that he's going to propose any day now.  <p>Okay, any week now . . .  <p>Any month now?</p></p></p></p>]]>
