Candy Schein had always been the kid in the middle row, halfway back. No trouble, no questions, no drama. She'd discovered early that being a fat girl was endlessly funny to the world, so she stopped talking to it. Turning away and keeping her head down suited her just fine-it was comfortable there, no tight seams or binding waistbands.
Then she saw the mystic blue doublewide. Not only was its color gorgeous, but it was oversized and discounted. A perfect fit.
But, for the house to be hers, Candy must learn to face the world. A mortgage, insurance, permits, contractors, debt-all of this requires engagement, conversation, small talk. Even harder, she must sometimes look people in the eye and ask for help.
The Doublewide is a love story about a home, about making a life, and, to Candy's surprise, about a man.
