From the back cover:
In this, her first novel, Kristie Helms follows her plucky twenty-something heroine through childhood in rural Kentucky on her first job in Manhattan, and finally to Boston as she searches for true love, a cubicle near the window and the perfect shade of lipstick.
Mostly it's a story of a woman finding her way in the world and choosing to "live the life she loves" and then making it happen with grit and determination--in her own words, "Because the alternative was to allow the world to knock you over."
