Book Description:
Annabeth is a hopeless romantic who believes in soul
mates. In fact, she’s been writing to hers each year on her birthday since she
was 16.
Now, at
34, she’s still holding out hope of finding Mr. Right even though he’d be
fighting an uphill battle to gain her trust, thanks to a traumatic experience
years before that’s left her unable to commit.
When
Annabeth meets a handsome literature professor named Alex on her 34th
birthday, she thinks her quest may finally be at an end. Things don’t quite go
as planned, so Annabeth resolves to do everything she can over the next year to
find the unknown recipient of her letters. But blind dates, Meetup events
and online singles sites have nothing on what fate has in store for her when a
co-worker unexpectedly quits and Annabeth finds herself working in close
quarters with both Alex and her long ago ex, Nick. Fighting her attraction to
one and loathing for the other, Annabeth is forced to face all of her old
insecurities while keeping an eye on a scheming frienemy who may derail her
hopes and dreams.
Written
in the tradition of Bridget Jones' Diary, Kim Gruenfelder’s A Total
Waste of Makeup, and Melissa Pimental’s Love By The Book, it shows
that love on the sweet side can exist for the modern girl, if only she’s
willing to trust herself and search hard enough.
