From Barnes & NobleThe Isabel Gillies we meet about the beginning of this memoir should be at the end of her tether. Her husband has recently abandoned her for another woman and now, with two toddlers and luggage in tow, she's arriving at a New York City airport, faced with the prospect with living again with her parents. That entrance does sound like the beginning of a brisk, even hilarious single mom memoir, but this sequel to Gillies' strong selling Happens Every Day possesses a winning feistiness that any reader with a soul can appreciate. The former CSI: Special Victims Unit actress doesn't simply win back her self-confidence and independence step-by-stumbling step; she finds new romance in the City That Never Sleeps.
Julie Metz"Isabel Gillies gives us a story of unexpected romance, unfolding the story of her journey from divorce heartbreak and single motherhood to new love and family with genuine intimacy and humor.
