Sometimes love shows up where you least expect itright next door.
A jaded twenty-something is stuck living at home, her life on pause, when a single dad becomes her new neighbor, and unexpectedly sets her lifeand her heartinto motion in this modern love story from the bestselling author of You, Again.
At 26, Sam Pulaski expected to be thriving in her academic career, living on her own in some exciting city. Expectations, meet reality. She has massive student loans from studying art history, a dead-end service industry job, a situationship thats equal parts intoxicating and toxic. And shes been crashing in her moms condoat least its not a basement?for the last five years. If she can finally get accepted into a PhD program and get out of Ohio, the adult life thats been on hold for half her twenties will finally begin.
Her moms new neighbor, Nick, is the ultimate grownup. His adult life began the moment his nine-year-old daughter, Kira, was born. Her happiness is Nicks only priority, especially in the wake of divorce. Theres nothing he wont do for Kiraincluding giving up his globetrotting career for something more stable…like managing a chain restaurant.
Sam has zero interest in an ultra-dependable guy pushing forty; frankly, shes a little afraid of kids. But with just one thin wall separating the two condos, Nick proves difficult to avoid. His quiet confidence forces Sam to grapple with the other men in her life: her emotionally derelict friend-with-benefits and her actually-derelict father. As her unexpected connection with Nick heats up (and steams up his minivan windows), Sam finds herself falling fast for a man whose life is steady and settledwhile hers is anything but.
