Book Description:
Mirabelle is the "Shopgirl" of the title, a young woman, beautiful in a wall-flowerish kind of way, who works behind the glove counter at Neiman Marcus "selling things that nobody buys anymore..."

Mirabelle captures the attention of Ray Porter, a wealthy businessman almost twice her age. As they tentatively embark on a relationship, they struggle to decipher the language of love--with consequences that are both comic and heartbreaking.

I love this audio book. It's a type of depressing story with a happy ending. As I write this I've been suffering a bought of depression for a while, and this was a perfect compliment to my mood. I was able to wallow in my depression, while feel a little uplifted when it ended. It's a short listen at 3 1/2 hours.

Love story about a young woman (shop girl) & an older man. The girl is really depressed. The man is a ladies man & has set his sights on the girl. Has sex scenes. Interesting how the book ends.
