"e;An affecting portrait of one woman's heroic journey from tragedy to her own version of happiness"e; from the acclaimed author of All About Evie (Booklist).Two years and 170 pounds ago, Stevie Barrett was wheeled into an operating room for surgery that most likely saved her life. Since that day, a new Stevie has emerged, one who walks without wheezing, plants a garden for self-therapy, and builds and paints fantastical wooden chairs. At thirty-five, Stevie is the one thing she never thought she'd be: thin.But for everything that's changed, some things remain the same. Stevie's shyness refuses to melt away. She still can't look her gorgeous neighbor in the eye. The Portland law office where she works remains utterly dysfunctional, as does her family-the aunt, uncle, and cousins who took her in when she was a child. To top it off, her once supportive best friend clearly resents her weight loss. But as Stevie starts to uncover some surprising revelations-about who she is, who she wants to be, and how the old Stevie evolved in the first place-she realizes the most important part of her transformation may not be what she's lost, but the courage and confidence she's gathering, day by day.Praise for the novels of Cathy Lamb"e;A story of strength and reconciliation and change."e; -The Sunday Oregonian"e;I loved this beguiling novel about love, friendship and the enchantment of really good chocolate."e; -Luanne Rice, New York Times-bestselling author"e;Lamb is an awesome storyteller and moves seamlessly from the past to the present."e; -RT Book Reviews
