{"product_id":"hot-and-bothered-annie-downey-9781565124745","title":"Hot and Bothered","description":"She's offbeat, off balance, and at times off-the-wall, a late-thirties mother of two living in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and trying to figure out who she is now that her husband has left her. He's a rat, anyway, and currently attends Sex Addicts Anonymous. He still comes by the house, though, as do her hippie, macrobiotic mother; her feisty, alcoholic best friend; her God-fearing grandmother; and that Perfect Guy, the one with the beatific son who plays with her daughter, the one who happens to have a winning smile, wild black hair, a professorship at Harvard--and (drats ) a gorgeous doctor girlfriend. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Told in short takes that perfectly mimic the frantic nature of our busy lives, \u003ci\u003e Hot and Bothered\u003c\/i\u003e follows its heroine through the streets of Cambridge, where she spends far too much time staring into space and sipping mocha lattes with extra whipped cream; to church, where she prays for a little salvation; to Alaska, where she believes a rugged outdoorsman might just \u003ci\u003ebe\u003c\/i\u003e that salvation; and to Cape Cod, where, in a little house by the sea, she might finally see the light. Annie Downey has written an updated Cinderella story for all single moms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Annie Downey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 156512474X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781565124745\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Algonquin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/25\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.96h x 5.30w x 0.71d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2006 pg. 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2006 pg. 40","brand":"Annie Downey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46334497620223,"sku":"9781565124745","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dab49cd8-54c8-4f7f-a08e-2fe28dab2961.jpg?v=1731466986","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hot-and-bothered-annie-downey-9781565124745","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
