Former TV weatherman Andy Dunne has watched his life
implode. His wife left him (taking everything but one bar
stool), he's now working on satellite radio and his long-
time silent love/crush on Hillary Hsing isn't going
anywhere.
As he begins to take some pride in ownership of his empty
home -- the baseboards are really clean -- Andy auditions for
a children's show at Hillary's urging. It's supposed to be
a joke, but he could never have foreseen how his life would
flip around when he gets the part. The show is a hit, and
Andy becomes suddenly popular. Women approach him in bars,
his career is shooting straight up and yet, he can't get
over Hillary. Married Hillary. Lost to him Hillary.
TWO YEARS, NO RAIN traps you in its pages, deftly twining
words until you can't bear to leave. It's not an adrenalin-
fueled race or laced with mystery -- unless you count the
mystery of who we are as people. How we think and confront
challenges. How much we drink when life seems to keep
tossing typhoons our way. A subtle, intriguing pull will
keep you pinned to the pages. An excellent read.
An earnest journey from heartache to heartthrob and all
the emotions along the way; at once an old-fashioned love
story and a cautionary tale of self-reinvention.
In
San Diego County, it hasn’t rained in 580 days. But for
weatherman Andy Dunne, everything else is changing fast…
Only a few weeks ago, he was a newly divorced, slightly
overweight meteorologist for an obscure satellite radio
station, hiding his secret love for a colleague, the
beautiful—and very much married—Hillary Hsing. But nearly
overnight, Andy has landed a new gig, flying a magic
carpet in a bizarre live-action children’s TV show. So
what is affable, basically decent Andy Dunne going to do
now that he can do practically anything he wants? With a
parade of hot moms begging for his autograph and a family
that needs his help more than ever, Andy has a lot of
choices. First, though, there’s this thing with Hillary,
their heated text messages, a long-awaited forecast for
rain – and a few other surprises he never saw coming…
