RITA Award winner Melody Carlson's sassy tale highlights the healing influence of family, friends, faith-and unexpected love-on a 31-year-old single gal who's down but not out. The day she dons her Valentino boots, Cassidy's life starts spinning out of control. Her boss fires her, her boyfriend dumps her, and someone steals her identity. And binging on chocolate doesn't help. "Any book by Carlson is worth encountering."-Booklist

"It's sort of a "Good In Bed" meets "Watermelon" meets "Theodora's Diary" - mostly fluff, but still with enough substance to make it really enjoyable. The perfect comfort book for a lazy morning in bed or a rainy day curled up in front of the fire. A quick but fun read."

" Another book chosen from cover art. Good job cover artists! You made me choose this book. But once I started reading, I didn't put it down until I finished. So thanks Ms. Carlson! Loved the story. I also loved that even though Cassie's self esteem was down, she didn't let go of her value set. "
