Promise Me Sunshine

"Most nights, Lenny rides the Staten Island Ferry until sunrise. She can’t bear to go back to the apartment she once shared with Lou, her now-dead best friend. As she struggles to bear each day without Lou, a grumpy stranger named Miles falls into her life. Like some sort of guardian angel of grieving, Miles offers Lenny a balm for when the pain overwhelms: Do something good for you. Something bad for you. And, a change of scenery. Slowly, Miles coaxes Lenny back to life. On its surface, grief may seem an odd theme for a romance novel, but then again, what is grief if not the purest expression of love?"
