Publisher's summary

In this fun, feisty romp, a celebrity life coach collides with her former mentor as both women struggle with the choices they’ve made, the lives they have now, and the legacy they’ll leave behind.

Caroline Beckett is living the dream. A self-help guru with a glamorous clientele and a marriage to a handsome photographer, she’s proof women really can have it all. But one night leaves Caroline reeling, forcing her to reconsider everything she thought she knew about her life—and what (if any) business she has teaching anyone how to live theirs.

Retired professor Devorah Van Buren is spending her time getting herself and her chihuahua, Mary Magdalene, kicked out of local restaurants for causing scenes with tourists. When she learns about Caroline’s rise to success and the personal scandal that’s followed, Devorah has a new purpose: sue her former student for stealing the ideas that made Caroline famous.

Back in her hometown to handle this new problem, Caroline is surprised to find reconnections with not only Devorah but her high school sweetheart too. After the way her life fell apart, Caroline is beginning to wonder if, with Devorah’s help, maybe she can build something better.

Critic reviews

“A fine summer read with a pleasant Cape Cod backdrop and convincing character development.”Booklist

“A humorous and heartbreaking debut. Two strong and feisty women—a famous life coach and a salty, snarky widow—reunite when one is accused of stealing the other’s work, which is now a bestselling book. Add in an imploding marriage, a possible second chance with a first love, and the beauty of Cape Cod…A beach read that will make you think about what is really important in a relationship.”—Pamela Kelley, USA Today bestselling author of The Bookshop by the Bay

“Marion McNabb has written a story of the second chances that can revive wilted fortunes, with a little help from our friends. Her protagonist, Caroline, watches as her glorious life-coach life is upended by betrayal, and then has to fight her way back to a way of being that might just be more authentic—and even sweeter. Wiser doesn’t have to be sadder in this modern fable.”—Jacquelyn Mitchard, New York Times bestselling author of A Very Inconvenient Scandal

Perfect read to start the summer

This was a fabulous read, thoughtfully and carefully yet lightly written with elements of humor, romance, and soul-searching.

The philosophical overtones and references framed a classic story of love, remembrance and self discovery.

A perfectly enjoyable read for the transition from spring to summer.
