ABOUT THE BOOK
Chicago, 1951Janet Wilson’s life runs on lists: packing lists, to-do lists, and carefully plotted five-year plans. Determined to prove herself, Janet leaves her small Ohio town to be a lifestyle reporter at a Chicago newspaper.
But Janet’s lists fail her in the chaotic, rough-and-tumble newsroom where she doesn’t fit in. Everything is unexpected, including her recipe column that uncovers an ugly side of Chicago.
The greatest surprise of all is fellow reporter, Bridger Jensen. A playful exchange of notes left in her typewriter turns into something more. But Bridger’s life is a messy package deal with a darling five-year-old daughter—exactly the kind of entanglements she promised her parents she’d avoid.
Now Janet must decide whether to cling to the orderly life she’s always planned, or risk everything for the messy, marvelous tango of love. Maybe the best stories are the ones you never planned to write.
