Don't Eat the Parakeet

Youthful and vibrant Karen Wycliff's life is spiraling out of control. Her husband Brad abandons her for his secretary, her teen daughter won't take responsibility for the toddler she brought into the family, and Karen's 15-year-old son chases every girl who comes near. Then there's the pool her soon-to-be-ex-husband started that's no more than a muddy hole in her backyard. It's when her grandson's parakeet escapes its cage and has to be rescued by a handsome construction worker in her yard that things get even worse. It's the start of a series of calamities that leaves Karen attracted to three different strangers, all of whom stir the butterflies of love in her heart. One of these three men jumps into a fight with a pack of burly ruffians to defend her honor. The hospital tells Karen he's in critical care. They can't tell her more, because she hasn't learned his name. When Karen's older brother shows up for her birthday shindig on the opening day of the pool, he begins to suspect his sister isn't in love with three men. It's when Brad returns from Mexico with his new wife on the day of the party that Karen loses her cool. How can she find love if everyone else continually gets in the way? This is a story of almost losing out on love, only to find it's been right there waiting to be discovered all along.
