Description

Opposites attract when a buttoned-up professor is forced to team up with a carefree doorman to restore her identity, which has magically disappeared from all records, in this sparkling romance about enjoying the life you have.

____

What if losing herself is the key to finding where she truly belongs?

Catherine Lipton plans everything. After a chaotic childhood, the stability of her life as a maths professor is essential, even if, just sometimes, she wishes she could be someone else, someone with a totally different life.

Catherine's tidy life is running smoothly until her entire identity - from her Social Security number to her driver's license to her academic record - mysteriously disappears and there's suddenly no evidence Catherine Lipton ever existed.

With no ID and no other options, Catherine reluctantly accepts help from her exasperatingly laid-back - and infuriatingly attractive - doorman, Luca Morelli. Before long, by-the-book Catherine finds herself bending all the rules with the charismatic Luca - from taking meetings in smoky bars to breaking into hospital record rooms - and having a surprising amount of fun.

As Catherine unravels the truth behind her identity's disappearance, she may discover that the real Catherine has been missing for a lot longer than she realised.

About the Author

Melissa Wiesner's mother didn't allow her to watch much TV as a child and, instead, made her play with paint, colorful pipe cleaners, random bits of fabric, and other crafty things. This set up Melissa for a lifetime of creative

pursuits, and it was only a matter of time before things took a bookish turn. A night owl, Melissa began writing novels when her early-to-bed family retired for the evening. She is the author of emotional women's fiction and romantic

comedies. Along with her charming husband and two adorable children, Melissa splits her time between the big city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and rural West Virginia.
