I really loved this book because it has so many relationships that went south in the past and need to be taken care of in the here and now-relationships that had so many assumptions in them that were all wrong.Marly is returning to Marietta after a 9 year absence. She has lived and worked in San Francisco for those years only to have the rug pulled out from her in regard to work (fired), fiance' (gone back to old girlfriend to marry) and she's pregnant with said ex-fiance's' baby. Not exactly the way she wanted to return to Marietta at all, if at all.Now she finds she feels she is the biggest disappointment ever to her mom because for all of her mother's attempts to make Marly have a great future have disintegrated into history repeating itself.Then there's Drake-a guy Marly fell for in high school and who ditched her before their first date-who is reintroduced into Marly's life at just the wrong time for her. But, is it the wrong time for him?This is just a sweet read threaded with life issues in relationships that come to interesting resolutions.
