In this irresistible debut novel, a freak accident
allows a wife and mother to explore the alluring alternative
of the Road Not Taken.
Abbey Lahey is a
married, harried working mother of two, struggling to make
ends meet in a blue-collar suburb of Philadelphia. When a
tumble down a Nordstrom escalator lands her in an alternate
reality, Abbey finds herself happily married to the one who
got away--a dashing Philly blueblood she met briefly years
earlier--and living a Cinderella life of privilege and
luxury.
It's everything Abbey ever dreamed of. Or is
it? At first dazzled by the clothes, the penthouse, the
nannies, and the glittering social functions, Abbey begins
noticing troubling flaws in her new fourteen-karat life . .
. and wonders what happened to the people she left behind.
Torn between two vastly different realities, Abbey takes
increasingly dramatic steps to reclaim herself---whoever
that may be.
