Crossed the Line - More than a chick lit novel

Crossed the Line by Madeline Fresco is a coming of age novel set just after college. A young woman,
Grace, is intimately involved with her boyfriend Carl. Everything seems to be going well, until he proposes. Grace is suddenly overwhelmed ... but why? Every young person in Michigan is supposed to want to get married in their young twenties ... right?

Grace questions whether marriage is really something she wants, or is it something she is told she should want?

We all deal with these conflicts. Should we want something? Should we want the high paying job, despite the fact we may not have as much time for our family? Should we want to get married if we are gay? What if you are in a committed loving relationship, but now that marriage is on the table, do you really want it? Or maybe you are in a loving marriage, but everyone keeps asking you when are you going to have kids? Maybe you don't actually want them? Is that okay?

This book applies on so many levels. Marriage. First jobs. Friends. Take a look at Crossed the Line by Madeline Fresco. it's not just another chick lit novel.
