A modern day fantasy set in Manhattan, Prelude to a Kiss is the story of Peter and Rita, who meet at a party. He has a boring job in medical publishing, and she's a bartender with insomnia. They find common ground on a number of subjects and hit it off right away. They begin a whirlwind romance that culminates in wedding bells within only a few months. They would seem to be the perfect match, but on their honeymoon Rita visibly changes. She becomes more gaudy and insensitive, brusque and outgoing. This is not the cautious, more thoughtful Rita that Peter is used to. What's happened...and can it be fixed? Soon?
