Rachel Miller is a lawyer and mother of two who's just as comfortable in a courtroom as she is on the sidelines of a soccer field. Sure, her marriage is on autopilot, her parents are overly involved, and the other suburban moms are just a little bit catty. But if you ask Rachel, life is good. That is until her world is upended when racy photos of her and her high-school boyfriend, the famous actor Jack Bellow—along with his love letters to her—are published in a tabloid, unexpectedly thrusting Rachel into the spotlight. This newfound attention calls into question her marriage, her career, and her superstar ex. Betrayed by someone she trusted and reunited with the man she tried so hard to forget, Rachel must ask herself "How did I get here? And what do I really want?"

      Saunders sparkles in her emotional second-chance romance debut. After Rachel Miller’s husband Dan sells the “mushy” love letters sent to her by her high school boyfriend Jack Bellow, now a movie star, to a tabloid to get out from under a massive gambling debt that Rachel didn’t know about, her orderly world is thrown into chaos. A mother of two and a successful lawyer in pricey Westchester County, N.Y., Rachel is blindsided by Dan’s betrayal. Then Jack reaches out to see how she’s handling her unwanted 15 minutes of fame. The pair go to dinner in Manhattan, reunited for the first time in nearly two decades—and when paparazzi snap their goodbye hug, the media frenzy only intensifies. Still, seeing Jack again helps Rachel realize that her marriage has been on the rocks for longer than she’d care to admit. She faces a choice: work to resuscitate her marriage or try again with her first love. Saunders keeps readers guessing which it’ll be up to the very end while drawing them in with snappy prose and skillful characterization. Flashbacks to Rachel and Jack’s early relationship make it especially easy to invest in their connection. This should win Saunders plenty of fans.

      Faced with a failing marriage, anyone might be tempted to reminisce about past loves and possibilities. For Rachel Miller, that temptation lands on her doorstep in the form of a tabloid expos� about her high school boyfriend, who is now a Hollywood superstar. Jack Bellow once broke her heart, and Rachel never forgot her old flame; now, with their past love suddenly in the spotlight, she relives each agonizing, enchanting moment. When Jack makes it clear that happiness is still within reach, Rachel must choose between maintaining the status quo or taking a chance on true love. Saunders makes a delightful debut with this fun, fast-paced novel. The dual timeline follows both the early days of Rachel and Jack's relationship and the aftermath of the scandal that reunites them. Narrator Emily Ellet gives an expressive, engaging performance of this reflective look at friendship and fame. VERDICT Will appeal to listeners seeking amusing, upbeat relationship fiction blended with second-chance romance. Recommended for fans of Carolyn Prusa, Laura Dave, and Emily Giffin.--Lauren Hackert
