This recently occurred after purchasing Ms. There are few greater joys for me than finding a book I absolutely can not put down.

When this rare event does occur I am at my happiest.

Laying awake in bed at 1:00am not thinking of the fact that i have to be up at 5:00 am to meet with clients. I find myself glued to my Kindle and forgetting everything else around me. Kids, friends, and even dishes are ignored. When I find a book I love my spinning world stops. More often than not I come across a book I really don't love. As the two women embark on a journey to find the one thing missing in their lives, each will come to recognize that where we belong is often where we least expect to find ourselves-a place that we may have willed ourselves to forget, but that the heart remembers forever. From the moment Kirby appears on her doorstep, Marian’s perfectly constructed world-and her very identity-will be shaken to its core, resurrecting ghosts and memories of a passionate young love affair that threaten everything that has come to define her.įor the precocious and determined Kirby, the encounter will spur a process of discovery that ushers her across the threshold of adulthood, forcing her to re-evaluate her family and future in a wise and bittersweet light. only to find Kirby Rose, an eighteen-year-old girl with a key to a past that Marian thought she had sealed off forever.

But one night, Marian answers a knock on the door. With a fulfilling career and satisfying relationship, she has convinced everyone, including herself, that her life is just as she wants it to be. Marian Caldwell is a thirty-six year old television producer, living her dream in New York City.
