Gabe seems to know more about Lou than Lou does about himself, and, perhaps more disturbingly, Gabe always seems to be in two places at once. But when Gabe begins to meddle in Lou's life, the helping hand appears to be a serious mistake. Inspired by his own unexpected act of kindness, Lou decides to prolong his charitable streak and contrives to get Gabe a job in his company's mailroom. One frigid morning, in an uncharacteristic burst of generosity, he buys a cup of coffee for Gabe, a homeless man huddled outside his office building. And ever since he started competing for a big promotion, he has barely seen his family at all. The classic workaholic who never has a moment to spare, he is always multitasking while shortchanging his devoted wife and their adorable children. New York Times best-selling author Cecelia Ahern spins a witty, warm, and wise modern-day fable of love, regret, hope, and second chances.Įxtremely successful executive Lou Suffern is always overstretched, immune to the holiday spirit that delights everyone around him.

Her close friend Elizabeth Gilbert (of Eat, Pray, Love fame) has predicted Doyle’s star will rise still further, and called her “the next Gloria Steinem”.

I held my hands out for him to see how badly they were shaking. In this case, I’d take his nipple piercings. I had my entire life ahead of me, and I needed to quit being a wuss and grab life by the balls. For so long I’d been happy to just be alive but now.now I had Dex. What kind of life was I living if I let my fears steer me? This was a gift I’d forgotten to appreciate lately. I loved him and sometimes there were consequences of it that were scary, but it-the emotion itself-wasn't. My bones and heart knew that there was nothing for me to fear. That didn't mean that he was the only one who knew how to give. Well, there were three other words I'd like to hear but I'd take these from him. "That's my girl."Īfter all the crap that I'd gone through today, there couldn't have been three better words to hear. It was everything I’d wanted.Įach of his thumbs curved over the shells of my ears. I don't know how to explain it-it was like Christmas morning when you were a kid. It pulsed, full of life and warmth and gummy bears and glitter. “My rib cage clenched all of the organs and muscles within it. |
