After her husband of fifteen years comes out of the closet, a blindsided, forty-year-old Amanda Lewis is forced to salvage what remains of her shattered heart and navigate a new life for herself and her teenage daughter. But will a sizzling secret romance with a famous young NFL quarterback lead her to winning the life she deserves or set her up for her biggest loss yet?
As she embarks on the journey of rebuilding her home, Amanda discovers that finding forgiveness and repairing her damaged self-worth are her biggest challenges of all. While searching her soul–and even searching inside her city's history–she finds answers. But will answers come too late and can a broken heart ever be truly fixed?

My Review
After fifteen years of marriage, from which was born Lily, Amanda is left by her husband. Can not explain what could have happened, then the husband turns out to be gay. Amanda is very hurt, lost confidence in herself and especially in her ability to judge others. Search in all ways to protect and bring to life the situation in the best way possible to their teenage daughter. At 40 years alone, hurt and disappointed arrives on her way Bradley, the quarterback of her favorite team in the NFL, the Pittsburgh Steelers: a boy of 29 years old, handsome and interested in her. It will be the right person to start to love? Will be able to follow her heart?
It 's a modern and contemporary comedy, on second chance in life, the courage to get up after a nasty fall. Amanda is a real woman, strong and fragile at the same time, a protective mother who will be able to find the thread of her life. Bradley is the ideal guy, gentle and sweet, sexy and a great champion. Derrick is really irritating, offensive to the ex-wife
In the background to the novel and to make the story even more interesting and exciting football matches. The final remains uncertain until the end and makes you want to read it all in one breath.
It 's a great book, funny and romantic .....
