Description:
“If her husband turns up alive—she'll kill him!
Explaining to the seriously sexy cop why she hasn't noticed her
husband has been missing for three days is both embarrassing and sobering. But
the day Fiona Rowland lifts her head above the churning chaos of kids,
carpools, and a million things to do, annoyance turns to fury...then to worry.
Where is Stanley?
Having one of those wake-up-and-smell-the-coffee moments changes the
way a woman looks at things: marriage, money, family, and friends. And when her
best pal from high school arrives (packing her own secrets) to lend support, it
turns out even the past isn't quite what it seems. Scrambling to make sense of
the drama unfolding, Fiona discovers there's an upside to having your whole
world turned upside down. It's easier to grab the good stuff.”

Appraisal:
Finding
Fiona is many different, sometimes contradictory things. It starts with a
mystery. Where’s Stanley? Fiona’s husband disappeared and there aren’t many
clues as to where he might be. There’s romantic comedy in a few different ways
as romance threatens to take hold, but there are times when the romantic side
of things is way too serious to be funny. Fiona’s best friend from her high
school days stumbles into the middle of this crisis and alternates between helping
and exacerbating the situation.
This was a fun story that kept me guessing, both about the mystery
part, but also the romance and relationship part. I wasn’t sure who was going
to end up with who, or how the different conflicts would resolve. It kept me
guessing and, even more importantly, I liked the characters enough to care how
it turned out.
