Absolutely STUNNING novel
Created: 09/07/08
This is a fantastic book that I highly recommend.
Lyssa is trying in vain to conceive a baby with her longtime boyfriend, Jake. Jake is fed up with the shots, the sperm analyses, the labs--and he seeks comfort in the arms of a gorgeous, yet ice cold co-worker.
Lyssa has an epiphany and decides to embark on a trek through Nepal, leaving St. Albans and her extremely fertile younger sister, Edie, as well as her job working for "My Baby" magazine.
Lyssa is smart and funny and you feel what she feels. Matthews' writing is just the perfect mixture of descriptions, feels, dialogue, and tone.
It was not predictable, yet not corny with some ridiculous "twist" either. The end had me in tears--good tears. I felt like I was Lyssa and was right with her.

Loved this book. A lighthearted look at relationships and how our lives can change overnight. Another great book by Carole Matthews. If you enjoy nature and the simple life this will make you want to pack your bags and get the next flight to Nepal.
