A New Novel Just for Catholic Women ... Catelyn Frank's life has taken a 180 degree turn: she used to be a New York fashion writer but now, thanks to some "serious re-assessment of life goals", she's headed off to Texas to study philosophy -- particularly her favorite philosopher, Saint Thomas Aquinas -- and maybe, just maybe, find that elusive Perfect Guy.
