Magnificent Mess

College is over and Emma's supposed to know what she's doing. Her over-bearing mother sure does: law school and then the family firm. Too bad Emma doesn't agree.

Meanwhile, her best friend Kim wants to set her up with the new guy in Kim's office. This is a problem. Patrick is more alluring than Emma wants to admit-infuriatingly so.

Stuck between casebooks and a man who can't seem to make up his mind, Emma jumps ship and heads for a summer study abroad in Ireland. Unfortunately, Ireland doesn't make things any clearer, especially when she finds herself in bed with cute and studious Alex.

In the wake of her rebellions, Emma is left grasping for a sense of belonging. Patrick or Alex? Denver, or somewhere else?

Whatever she's doing, and wherever she's doing it, Emma will have to embrace the messiness of getting to know herself, maybe for the first time ever.
