Take Two Amy Ito

Celia knows three things when she returns to Chicago after college: One: Her father's fortune has disappeared, and she's the one volunteered to sell off his belongings; Two: Her aunt is still bound and determined to get her married off to the next blind date she sets up; And three: That old high school boyfriend turned ex-fiancée? Tom Elliot? He's back in town as a newspaper columnist for the biggest paper in the city. The first two things she can handle, albeit with a fair amount of grumbling. But then Tom's columns start getting a little too . . . personal, and Celia finds herself in the unwelcome position of revisiting a past that should no longer matter. But the more time she spends with Tom and her family, the more she realizes that nothing happens without a reason. Not even the blind dates.
