The Trials of Adeline Turner

Fans of Sophie Kinsella and Emily Griffin will love this new offering from Angela Terry, author of Charming Falls Apart. Corporate attorney Adeline Turner thought she had life all figured out--work hard, play by the rules, and keep your head down. When Addie bumps into her former high school crush, their encounter unleashes a chain of events that turns her quiet life upside down. Unadventurous, nose-to-the-grindstone Adeline suddenly finds herself moving across the country, falling into messy romantic situations, and becoming the target of an office-politics plot that threatens her career. Without the support system she had in Chicago, Addie must rely solely on herself and learn that things aren't always what they seem. She soon realizes that to have the future she wants she must confront the past--including the mother who abandoned her. Rave reviews for Charming Falls Apart, the author's first book: "From the very first page, I was hooked on this tale of heartbreak, self-discovery, and one woman's charming determination to turn lemons into lemonade. Fans of Emily Giffin and Lauren Weisberger will love this engaging and entertaining debut!"―Meg Donohue, USA Today best-selling author of You, Me, and the Sea "Charming Falls Apart is the perfect comfort read.

Fans of Sophie Kinsella will root for Allison James as she rebuilds her life on her own terms."―Allie Larkin, internationally best-selling author of Swimming for Sunlight "A breezy read perfect for a summer day.
