"When Ruby Lamont's young son Jake starts telling tall tales about the dad who walked out on them six years ago, she realises that, for her son's sake, it's time to find out the truth. It's not that she wants Kenny back in her life--her best friend, charming commitment-phobe Griffin, has always been more of a father-figure to Jake--but if she can understand once and for all why Kenny broke her heart by leaving her, perhaps she and Jake can finally move on--Shaken out of her state of romantic limbo, Ruby must discover whether people really can change--or if paradise has been on her doorstep all along"-- Provided by publisher
