Description: Bad luck and worse choices&#x2014;that&#x2019;s Irene. She&#x2019;s been a widow half her life and now splits her time between waitressing at the Rise and Shine café and singing in an oldies cover band. And she&#x2019;s having an affair with a married man&#x2014;something that even her eclectic, super liberal family can&#x2019;t condone. She&#x2019;d be the first one to admit she has faults, but she&#x2019;s not a bigot. The genetic pool in her nuclear family spans the globe. And it&#x2019;s not that she&#x2019;s prejudiced against people with disabilities but that doctors and wheelchairs give her the heebie-jeebies. So when a cute guy in a chair keeps showing up in the restaurant, she&#x2019;s clumsy, awkward and strangely drawn. Can Irene let go of the past or is she too emotionally broken to find a future worth the risk?
