Publisher's Note
Eat, Drink, Gossip...Who said Poker Night was just for the Guys?

Dissatisfied both with writing a Single Girl on the Edge/Ledge/Verge column and with her boyfriend, Ruby Capote sends her best columns and a six-pack of beer to the editor of The New York News and lands herself a job in the big city. There, Ruby undertakes the venerable tradition of Poker Nighta way (as men have always known) to eat, drink, smoke, analyze, interrupt one another, share stories, and, most of all, raise the stakes.

When Ruby falls for her boss, though, all bets are off. What happens when Mr. Right has his own unresolved past? As smart as it is laugh-out-loud funny, Girls Poker Night is a refreshingly upbeat look at friendship, work, and love.
