Forty Candles — Virginia Nelson

Chloe Walker did everything right. She went to college, got a good job, dated the right men -- everything. Peering at forty from a bit too close, she realizes she can be miserable that she didn't end up happily married to the handsome prince…or she can count her lucky stars. She tries to go with stars, but the universe seems to have other plans.



Jack Leonard has loved Chloe since they were kids. He's stood by her through all life's little messes, been her shoulder to cry on, and figured one day they'd wind up together. He figures he's just waiting her out. When her life goes swirly, he's got to convince her that some men are worth risking it all for.



Can Jack make Chloe rethink her birthday wish or will she get just what she asked for when she blows out Forty Candles?
