A witty, emotion-packed contemporary romance novel that will leave you longing for the story to go on! -Romance Junkies
Nancy Carrington-Chambers believes a perfect life can be achieved by simply controlling every messy detail.
So when she's left neglected in the 'burbs, the pretty young socialite takes a marriage sabbatical from her perfect-on-paper husband and flees to San Francisco to start an event-planning company.
Step One: hire an assistant. Enter Derek-gorgeous, British, impeccably dressed, and gay. His unavailability gives their flirting all the fun and none of the guilt. Together, they set out to transform society's dreariest gala into the party of the year.
Then her jet-setting cousin drops off her three-year-old daughter with no warning and no explanation. The little girl is clearly neglected, and since no one in her appearance-obsessed family plans to take any responsibility, it's left to Nancy.
Derek is pulled into her efforts to care for the little girl, and a different kind of life begins to take shape for Nancy. She realizes that real style takes risks...but what is she willing to risk for those she's come to love?
[Acosta] uses humor and romance to show that in life and love, perfection is overrated. -Booklist
