The Opposite Of Love - Softcover

Emily panics when her boyfriend Andrew shows more than a passing interest in engagement rings, so she decides - not without regret - to ditch him before he can propose to her. Her work as a litigator becomes increasingly unfulfilling and, without realising it, her well-constructed life starts to crumble around her as she is forced to confront her unresolved grief at losing her mother, her grandfather's onset of lzheimer's and her dysfunctional relationship with her father... As Emily struggles to come to terms with issues she didn't even know she had, she realises that what she wanted was there all along... The Opposite of Love takes you along with Emily on her journey to discover quite what it is that is stopping her from being truly happy. How this brave, quirky, offbeat heroine finally decides to take control of her life and face the fears that have long haunted her is the great achievement of Julie Buxbaum's marvellous debut". -Francesca Liversidge, Senior Publishing Director, Transworld
