What to expect
Divorced by a husband who wanted children she couldn't have, editor Mary Bellamy has left the Boston suburbs to telecommute from tiny, affordable Lawson, New Hampshire. She's certain that all she wants is peace and quiet and maybe a cat.
But the unhappily married Episcopal priest who's trying to save her heathen soul might be susceptible to more earthly temptations. And the handsome local cop who's also an excellent kisser confuses her by being in favor of gay rights, but opposed to sex before marriage.
Soon Mary's keeping a scandalous secret at great cost to her own happiness. Worse, her disintegrating ex-husband is threatening what little she has left.
But in this witty and affectionate tale of small town life, Mary may discover that the connections she's made can result not only in terrifying risks, but in unexpected blessings.
