The Someday Jar

Fans of Sophie Kinsella and the Shopaholic series will fall in love with Lanie Howard - young, fabulous, and desperate to transform her life - in this funny, quirky, and endearing story about finding perfect happiness in life's most imperfect moments. When life gives you lemon-drop martinis . . . Real-estate broker Lanie Howard figures she has the perfect man, the perfect job, and the perfect life. Then she stumbles across her old Someday Jar, the forgotten glass relic where she stashed all the childhood wishes - no matter how crazy - that her father encouraged her to write down on the backs of Chinese restaurant fortunes. She used to be fun once! What happened to her? Don't choke on the rind. Although Lanie is wary of uncorking her past, when an attractive stranger saves her from a life-or-death encounter with a lemon peel at the bottom of a martini glass, she realizes that life is way too short for regrets. Now, jar in hand, Lanie decides to throw caution to the wind, and carry out everything she had once hoped to do, even if it means leaving her perfectly 'perfect' life behind . . . Praise for The Someday Jar: 'A reminder that the idealism of childhood dreams is something we should always hold onto, this novel sparks hope with its whimsical story. From heartwarming to heart-wrenching, the ups and downs of the main character's journey, through romance, loss and new beginnings, might just inspire readers to follow some long-lost dreams of their own.'
