I really liked this book a lot. Nicci Bradford was a MB (Missionary Brat), moving around, mainly growing up in the Phillipines. When her parents retire and move back to the States, she is older and away in school so has never had a real home. She picks a city the total opposite of what she is familiar with - Boston - to live in. She has a job she isn't thrilled with. A co-worker keeps trying to fix her up with dates but none of them work out. She literally "falls" into the arms of a client and they begin dating. She takes him home for Thanksgiving to meet the parents and her grandfather doesn't approve - Italian leather shoes (you have to read the story). A chance meeting in a coffee shop leads to her true place in life. When an old friend walks away from her marriage and her life to return to work in Hong Kong, she re-evaluates everything.

Loved the book. Took me a while to re-post it here as 3 other people had to read it first!
