Description: "A recently divorced woman rises to the challenge and experiences the exhilaration of independence with the unlikely help of her brother with Asperger's, who she takes in to help pay the rent"--Amazon.com.

Lana's husband leaves her after nineteen years. As the newly single mother of two teenagers, in a house she can barely afford on her salary, her new life is a balancing act. She takes in her brother Matt, who has Asperger's syndrome. Adding Matt's regimented routine to her already disrupted household seems like the last thing Lana needs, but her brother's unique attention to detail makes him an invaluable addition to the family: he sees things differently.
