Publisher's Synopsis
Zella Dora's progression in life has been on hiatus for the better part of the past six years. Since losing her mother tragically and unexpectedly to a rare disease, she has inherited the duty of caring for her grieving father who vehemently refuses to accept that his wife is forever gone. Add to that the burden of being ever-present for a suicidal friend who, in a quest for love, is destined to pull everyone close to her down with her. Not to mention Zella's own dependence on her closest friend Darwin who, unbeknownst to her, is suffering from the quiet despair of unrequited love. Instances of unintentional eavesdropping on her neighbor's lovemaking oddly becomes the catalyst for Zella's desire to break free and follow her own path once again. But when Zella becomes intimately involved with her married neighbor, her world quickly spins out of control begging the question of whether she'll ever be able to live for herself again.
