Due South - Douglas Young

Douglas Young's second novel is a romantic dramedy in which Fitzhugh Rainwater is a girl-shy young graduate student / teaching assistant trying to find romance and become a writer. His longtime best friend, Zada McMayer, is the loud, bawdy, troubled flirt who helps him out of his shell while beautiful Cleonia Lovetree is the student with whom he falls in love. Follow the evolution of not just these three compelling characters but also enjoy lots of humor and some poignant moments with a much larger cast of colorful locals comprising the small southern college town of Due South.
