A Little Love Story

Jake Entwhistle is smart and handsome, but he lives with the shadow of his deceased girlfriend, who died on 9/11. Janet is a bright, witty aide to the governor of Massachusetts who suffers from cystic fibrosis, an illness that makes her, as she puts it, 'not exactly a good long-term investment.' After meeting by accident late one night, they begin a love affair filled with humor, startling intimacy, and a deep abiding connection.--From book jacket.
