Calm down. Be rational. Eat chocolate. –Tell Me LiesWhat would you do if you discovered crotchless panties in your husband’s car which don’t belong to you-his wife, realized your daughter was more suspicious about the healthiness of her parent’s relationship more than she should, your best friend is acting stranger than normal, and your one time high school fling in a backseat shows up at your front door after twenty years of being absent looking “better than he had any right to after twenty years”?
Well, if you weren’t overwhelmed by the list alone you’d probably run, scream, cry or all of the above. And although Maddie Faraday doesn’t exactly become certifiably mad, her sanity and life in general become questioned. But as the holes in her life slowly become filled with portions of the truth, she soon discovers that all of the above is just the tip of the iceberg. Because sometimes—yup, those times—when we think life couldn’t get any worse, it does. With, of course, little glimpses of hope that may or may not come in the form of a twenty year old crush by the name of C.L. Sturgis.
Jennifer Crusie delivers once again with a witty, romantic, mysterious, and exciting ride through the town of Frog Point. She takes you through the many ups and downs of a woman who has forever been plagued by the cultural norms and politics a small town can enforce. And with the help of a frozen brownie, a beautifully stubborn man, and her increased will to be more she may just come out of this ordeal alive and better than she was before –that is, if the town gossip doesn’t drive her insane before then.
Happy reading,
Lauren
