关于此电子书
USA Today Bestseller: This “emotionally rich” novel of a father, a son, and a lesson in love is “pure pleasure from beginning to end” (Susan Elizabeth Phillips, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Dance Away with Me).
Jesse Sienna doesn’t believe that love can last. His parents’ marriage was caring but passionless, and his own romantic history tells him that love can burn bright, but that it cannot burn for long. So when his elderly father, Mickey, moves in with him and seems unable to understand Jesse’s no-strings-attached relationship with Marina, his current girlfriend, Jesse barely pays attention. It’s just another example of how different they are—and more evidence that he and his father will never connect on any meaningful level.
But the truth is, Mickey Sienna knows more about love than most people learn in a lifetime. Over half a century ago, he discovered the endless rewards of investing your heart and soul in someone . . . and he knows the devastating costs of letting the perfect someone slip by. Mickey sees Jesse taking an extraordinary woman for granted and decides it’s time to tell Jesse his story—a story he’s never shared with any of his children before. It is a tale that will change both of them profoundly.
“A wry, tender, beautifully written novel. . . . Once I started, I couldn’t put it down.” —Lisa Kleypas, New York Times–bestselling author of Secrets of a Summer Night
“Better than Nicholas Sparks’s best. There’s more wit, more wisdom, and yes, there are tears.” —John R. Maxim, New York Times–bestselling author of The Shadow Box
“A warm, engaging story [that] is well structured and funny and keeps you turning the pages till the very end. . . . It may even make you rethink your own attitude toward love.” —Suzanne Vega, multiplatinum recording artist
