Emily Aulenbach is an idealistic young lawyer who once dreamed of representing victims of corporate abuse. Instead, she now spends her days in a cubicle arguing victims of corporate greed out of their rightful claims. She no longer connects with much in her life, period, with the exception of three things—her computer, her BlackBerry, and her watch. One day, she snaps. Without telling anyone where she is going, she heads north to Bell Valley, New Hampshire, the small town where she spent a life-altering summer during her college years. There, she will set out to forge new relationships with lovers, long-lost friends and the person she once wanted to become.

I think that this is a book which some women will love and some will really hate. This will also be a boo...

This was more about self-discovery than romance but a very absorbing story with an exciting ending. Many times it had me thinking about my own life values and priorities. After a really bad day, overworked attorney Emily packs a bag and takes off leaving a brief note for her attorney husband James...
