I hoped I would fall in love with Ashley Stockingdale the same way I fell in love with Macy Moore or Elle Garvey, but it was not to be. I tried so hard to understand Ashley, to relate to her, to cheer for her...I just couldn't. Maybe I set myself up for failure...I was expecting Billerbeck's writing to mirror that of Rachel Hauck and yet they have two completely different writing styles, different ways of developing a character and telling their story. Sure, they are both Christian chick-lit writers, but that's where the similarities end. (  ) bookstorylori | Oct 1, 2009 |  I found this main character whinny and self absorbed. I didn't finish the book , I stopped half way thru. Didn't have the patience to wait for her to mature and find happiness. I read other books by this author and enjoyed them, I will try this one another time when I may be more in the mood. echarles18 | Aug 1, 2008 | A really cute book! I enjoyed the main character's morals, values, sense of humor and sense of style. I really enjoyed the humor and deep personalities of the characters in this book and the cute storyline. The characters reminded me of people I know. I liked that this was a Christian fiction book even though I haven't read one of those in a long time. It was a breath of fresh air. I'll definately read the sequel and any subsequent sequals to this book. A good read! (  ) picklechic | Mar 1, 2008 | Ashley Stockingdale is a 31-year-old patent attorney in Silicon Valley.

Ever felt like the last item left on the clearance rack?
As a successful patent attorney, Ashley Stockingdale has all the makings of a perfect catch-the looks, the brains, even a convertible. But at 31, she's beginning to wonder if she's been passed over for good.
Deciding to adopt a new attitude, Ashley suddenly becomes the romantic interest of three men within a matter of days. While her heart enjoys turning the tables on the dating game, the rest of her previously predictable world is being turned upside down. Is it more than Ashley can handle? Or is it exactly what she wants?
Award-wining author Kristin Billerbeck combines comedy with spunk to create a memorable story in What a Girl Wants--an all-too-realistic picture of a single girl's search for being content with who she is...with or without a man.
