Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Gigi Levangie Grazer, the New York Times bestselling author of The Starter Wife, returns with a hilarious and spirited tale of loveâboth lost and found.
Â
L.A. is no place for widows. This is what forty-four-year-old Hannah Bernal quickly discovers after the tragic death of her handsome and loving husband, John. Misery and red-rimmed eyes are little tolerated in the land of the beautiful. But life stumbles on: Hannahâs sweet three-year-old daughter, Ellie, needs to be dropped off at her overpriced preschool, while Hannah herself must get back to work in order to pay the bills on âCasa Sugar,â the charming Spanish-styled bungalow they call home.
Â
Fortunately, Hannah has her âGrief Teamâ for emotional support: earth mother and fanatical animal lover Chloe, who finds a potential blog post in every moment; aspiring actress Aimee, who has her cosmetic surgeon on speed dial; and Jay, Hannahâs TV producing partner, who has a penchant for Mr. Wrong. But after a series of mishaps and bizarre occurrences, one of which finds Hannah in a posh Santa Monica jail cell, her friends start to fear for her sanity. To make matters worse, John left their financial affairs in a disastrous state. And when Hannah is dramatically fired from her latest producing gig, she finds herself in danger of losing her house, her daughter, and her mind.
Â
One night, standing in her backyard under a majestic avocado tree, in the throes of grief, Hannah breaks down and asks, âWhy?â The answer that comes backâWhy not?âbegins an astounding journey of discovery and transformation that leads Hannah to her own truly extraordinary life after death.
