Truly

May Fredericks finally came to New York to move in with her NFL quarterback boyfriend, until he makes the world's most ham-fisted marriage proposal ever on ESPN. So she stabs him in the hand with a shrimp fork after he calls her plain, level-headed, and basically boring. She runs from the paparazzi, gets mugged, and finds herself in a bar in Greenwich Village. She can't go home. Ben Hausman decides that rescuing her is part of his personal program to become a better and much less stressed person. He's already lost one marriage and one restaurant business to his temper. He's trying to change. That rescue leads to romance, as Ben tries to persuade Wisconsin-bred May to fall in love with the city of New York. But when her family calls her home, Ben wonders if the fantastic woman he's come to know can survive an encounter with her relatives' expectations. Or will he just push away?
