“You know what people really need? Somebody who will listen hard and then find a way to tell them, ‘It’s not all your fault. It’s going to work out fine. Don’t give up.’” So advice columnist ‘Dear Lily’ Brown deeply believes. But Lily could write a letter to herself, asking what to do about an ex-husband who still wants her dating advice, how to redecorate the family home she’s kept exactly the same since her parents died tragically young, how to move on with her strangely becalmed life...and what to do when your wild-child estranged sister storms back into town.

J'avais tout calculé. Et puis je l'ai rencontré́, lui. Aleks Pierson. Le fils de mes patrons. Ce qu'il y avait entre nous était beau, fort, absolument bouleversant. Notre idylle aurait pu être mon histoire de cendrillon, celle qui se finit avec un " ils se marièrent et eurent beaucoup d'enfants ".

La presse à scandale va s'en donner à cœur joie. Moi, le Diable des Forty Niners, moi, le meilleur et le plus arrogant des quarterbacks de ma génération, je suis cantonné sur le banc de touche. Blessé juste avant les play-offs, je n'ai pas le choix, je dois regarder mes coéquipiers jouer sans moi.
