From the author of the acclaimed 'Getting Over Jack Wagner' comes a hip, funny tale about the perils of dating, the worries of parenting, and the challenges of finding oneself . . .
Charlotte's long nights are anything but restful, spent worrying and tossing while her mind reels with invisible noises and imagined burglars. Divorced for fifteen years, Charlotte has come to enjoy her small, tightly secluded life, much of which is focused on her twenty-two-year-old daughter Emily. A head-strong Wesleyan grad with a pierced tongue and an arsenal of opinions, Emily lives life from one passion to the next - the latest of which, her boyfriend, has invited Emily to move in with him, giving Charlotte one more reason to lie awake at night. But when Emily and her new man arrive for a much-anticipated weekend visit, what is revealed rivals anything Charlotte could have dreamt up in the darkness. And in the chaos that ensues, secrets are divulged, old memories are brought back to the surface, and Charlotte's carefully constructed reality breaks wide open.
