   Summary

   In a world with no joining and no Hivemind, author and bookstore owner, Carol Sturka, is stumbling through life after the death of her wife. When a charming, sweet and altogether too nice college professor appears in her shop and seems intent on sticking around in her life, Carol confronts what it means to move on and be human. Who knows, she might even finish her new novel.
