Publisher's Synopsis
Madeline King is twenty-two, independently wealthy, and living a life of luxury on the Gulf Coast of Alabama. She never planned to fall in love but when a family with twelve children vacations on the beach where she lives, her best laid plans come undone. The eldest--good-natured and dependable Reuben--captures her eye, and before long, her heart. But can Madeline, bipolar and prone to flights of fancy, handle a relationship with someone "normal"? Her best friend, the brooding Nick, questions the wisdom of her getting involved, but are his doubts for Madeline's good, or does he have his own reasons for keeping her away from Reuben? Skip to the End is a gritty, human tale told from the perspective of one for whom each day is a struggle, but who is learning that life is a journey worth living and love is a risk worth taking. Laced with humor and philosophy, Madeline's story will resonate with readers who enjoy the unpredictable and quirky.
