"The unbreakable bonds of family are explored in this brilliant and tender story from the author of Guy's Girl. On the day she arrives in Canada for her older brother's wedding, Eliot Beck hasn't seen her family in three years. The separation has been painful. Eliot adores her big, wacky, dysfunctional family. Still, there's a reason she fled to Manhattan and buried herself in her work, and that reason is a secret she's not willing to share with anyone. Not when speaking it aloud risks sending her back there. Into the torturous, never-ending cycle of the obsessive-compulsive disorder that consumed her for years. Eliot thinks she's mentally prepared to survive the four-day-long wedding extravaganza-that is, until she sees her best friend, Manuel, waiting for her on the dock at the marina. The same person who, when they met, felt like finding the missing half of her soul. The same person she tried so hard not to fall in love with-but whose heart she broke anyway. Manuel's presence at the wedding threatens the stone walls that Eliot built around herself. The fortress that keeps her OCD at bay. And if she isn't careful, by the end of this wedding, the whole castle might come crumbling down"--
