Eva Hanover hit forty years of age . . . and she had it all . . . a brilliant career, a gorgeous brownstone in Brooklyn and a sexy husband. Or, at least, she thought. 

In a wink of an eye, Eva's husband left her. She lost the brownstone and threw away her career in a fit of pique. With only the clothes on her back, she fled New York for the sunnier climate of Key Largo. As Eva put it, her marriage went south and so did she. 

Stuck in Key Largo, it is sink or swim for the devastated Eva. Starting over at forty is hard for anyone, but Eva wondered if she could ever be happy again. Step by step she makes her way back to a dream and eventually to love.
