Feeling dead in her marriage, Elizabeth Fairchild ditches the dream of her seemingly perfect life with her husband in search of who she really is. She went from her parents' house to her husband's home and never really learned to stand on her own two feet. She decides to leave her comfortable life in Napa Valley in search of her inner fire in New York City. She certainly didn't leave her husband to find another man, but she soon finds herself involved with two: Jack Stevens and Kevin Parker. Jack is older. He has heart-stopping good looks, is wildly successful, and is very much in control of everything around him - especially Elizabeth. Kevin is younger. He is carefree with a heart of gold and loves Elizabeth's spunk. While Elizabeth's old life still calls to her, she also finds what she needs in New York. But which dream will she choose?… (plus d'informations)

The synopsis piqued my interest. I had a feeling it wasn’t going to be your typical book. I knew instantly that this was a book I should read.
Elizabeth is on a journey of self discovery. And man does she ever discover more than she imagined. She lands in New York without a job and place to live. She doesn’t know a soul. Her entire adult life has consisted of taking care of her family. Now she is on a journey to take care of herself. She finds a job. She finds a place to live…
Then she finds not one, but two men who have awakened her in so many ways she could never have imagined. The relationships she builds with these men in a short time is astonishing. She falls into an easy rhythm with both of them and her new life.
Secrets always seem to be the downfall in most stories. In this case, the secrets aren’t necessarily that big, and definitely serve a purpose. Elizabeth started out as a housewife looking for herself. Then she finds that she has a hellcat that has lived inside her… but she carries the guilt of the feelings that can be hurt if everyone involved finds out the things she has not told them.
This story is a coming of age tale of a woman learning that you are never to old to find yourself. Sometimes in life, you just have to take the big chances to understand and appreciate everything around you. There is tenderness, love, and heartbreak throughout this book. I had a very difficult time putting it down. I was disappointed when it ended… I am curious to see if the next book picks up where this one left of… I sure am hoping so. Not sure what I want to come of this situation… ( )
