Description
At an age when most girls are curating picture-perfect Pinterest wedding boards, twenty-six-year-old Jess Klein is sobbing over a stack of divorce papers. Everyone told her marrying Chris was a monumental mistake, but stubbornness and blind adoration kept her from heeding their advice. Not long after saying "I do," Jess is living in her "forever home" all alone, lamenting what could have been. Attempting to piece her shattered fairytale back together while discovering what being on her own truly means, Jess inadvertently seeks solace in a roundup of losers. From the Guy Who Refuses to Eat, to Mr. Neurotic Neat Freak, to the One Who Refused to Grow Up, her luck with love seems to have run dry. In a desperate attempt to fix herself from the inside out, Jess seeks out advice from the lovable Dr. Green, a seventy-year-old shrink who feels like the only one to truly understand her plight. As Jess continues to fall forward, confident in nearly every aspect of life except for matters of the heart, she embarks upon a journey of self-discovery she never imagined she needed, begging the question: Can she have it all...just not all at once?FALLING FORWARD explores self-identity, the power of female relationships, and the painful realization that sometimes you need to lose the life you had in order to create the one that's waiting for you.
