#1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber brings you a humorous and uplifting story, in which one woman’s plans take an unexpected detour!
Susannah Simmons has a five-year plan to succeed in her career. And it doesn’t include falling in love with her next-door neighbor!
Nate Townsend is undeniably attractive, but he seems to lack ambition. He stays home baking cookies and flying kites while Susannah struggles up the corporate ladder.
She resents the way he questions her values—and makes her question them, too. Is he right? Has she given up too much in pursuit of her career goals? Has she given up family, fun…and Nate’s love?
