Więcej o książce
The New York Times bestselling author returns with a hilarious tale of one woman's journey to renovate an old house and her life. After her high-powered Washington PR firm boss is embroiled in a scandal, Dempsey Jo Killebrew finds herself nearly broke, unemployed, and homeless. With few options left, she reluctantly agrees to help refurbish Birdsong, her father's recently inherited Victorian mansion in Guthrie, Georgia. He assures her that a little paint and TLC will transform it into a profitable property. However, Dempsey is in for a shock upon arrival. The house, rather than a charming Victorian, resembles a dilapidated dump with duct-taped windows and a junk-filled driveway. To complicate matters, a grumpy distant relative has claimed squatter's rights and refuses to leave. The small town of Guthrie seems to be buzzing with news of Dempsey's misfortunes, from a charming real-estate agent to a cute local lawyer. Adding to her woes, FBI agents appear at her door, seeking information about her former boss. With no choice but to dive in, Dempsey rolls up her sleeves, and what begins as a job of necessity evolves into a labor of love, leading her to an unexpected destination—back home again.
