Synopsis
At forty-four, Kay Sorensen has quit drinking, smoking, and overeating, and she has almost quit reading self-help books about quitting drinking, smoking and overeating. She has divorced her deadbeat husband, finished college, and landed a job she loves directing a small branch of the county library.
But Kay still has one unconquered addiction: she just can’t say no to someone who needs her.
Praise
“A deftly plotted, frothy, fun, and warm-spirited novel…the heroine is generous and adorably muddled and the book is set in a castle—what more could you want? Read it!”
- Rosaleen Bertolino, author of The Paper Demon
“The Home for Unwed Husbands is so fresh and up-to-the-minute, it deserves to become a modern classic. I LOVED this book.”
- Barbara Graham, author of What Jonah Knew

No one moved to hug her or welcome her home…”
