In this utterly charming debutโperfect for fans of Cecelia Ahernโs P.S., I Love You and Allison Winn Scotchโs Time of My Lifeโone woman sets out to complete her old list of childhood goals, and finds that her lifelong dreams lead her down a path she never expects.
1. Go to Paris
2. Have a baby, maybe two
3. Fall in love
Brett Bohlinger seems to have it all: a plum job, a spacious loft, an irresistibly handsome boyfriend. All in all, a charmed life. That is, until her beloved mother passes away, leaving behind a will with one big stipulation: In order to receive her inheritance, Brett must first complete the life list of goals sheโd written when she was a naรฏve girl of fourteen. Grief-stricken, Brett can barely make sense of her motherโs decisionโher childhood dreams donโt resemble her ambitions at age thirty-four in the slightest. Some seem impossible. How can she possibly have a relationship with a father who died seven years ago? Other goals (Be an awesome teacher!) would require her to reinvent her entire future. As Brett reluctantly embarks on a perplexing journey in search of her adolescent dreams, one thing becomes clear. Sometimes lifeโs sweetest gifts can be found in the most unexpected places
