Twice-divorced Annabelle Martin is offered her dream job as creative director at a cutting-edge graphic design studio in Phoenix. She jumps at the opportunity to leave Boston and start over. Intrigued by the the cranky, handwritten notes her landlord, Nick Daire, leaves her, she assumes he is an old, rich curmudgeon. She discovers that Nick is her age and uses a wheelchair: he suffered a stroke a year ago. While there's no physical reason for him not to recover, he is struggling to overcome the paralyzing fear that has kept him a prisoner in his own home. Drawn to him, Annabelle soon wonders if she and Nick might help each other find the courage to embrace life, happiness, and true love. -- adapted from back cover
