Of course Monday is the worst day of the week!

Synopsis

How can Mia find happiness?

Lawyer Mia’s picture-perfect dream life in New York is imploding. Her job has become too stressful, she’s exhausted from carrying her friends and what’s up with her striking, wealthy fiancé?

But when life-changing decisions force her to move to Maine, where she’ll face her often critical father and hard truths about what truly matters in life, she re-discovers a passion of her youth.

What begins as a low moment in her life quickly pushes her to consider what she genuinely wants and leads her down a new path where she must embrace the future and let go of the past.

Will this move help Mia to fix her life, once and for all, and will she finally find true love?

My review

Mia is a lawyer in New York. Yet her life is not what she expected to be… her job is driving her crazy, her fiancé isn’t the most compassionate or caring person in the world, and her friends rely a little bit too much on her.

Will Mia be able to make life – changing decisions? And will they be able to make Mia find her true passions again?

What I liked about this story is the reality Mia is in. it’s so recognizable, finding yourself in a situation you don’t want to be in, and you lack in finding the courage to turn your world upside down.
And that is how we meet Mia. She truly wants to help people who need a lawyer, yet her own business is not going how she wants it to go.
She is struggling finding many clients, her assistant is having several other business going on (one more legal than another).

And let’s just be honest, I despise her boyfriend/ fiancé. From the first instant I read about it, it’s clear what kind of man he is.
Everything he does, will only benefit him.
So when Mia finds herself engaged to him (yes, she finds herself engaged…) it’s the start of changing her life’s course.

When she goes to her parents in Maine to tell them the news, she is ready to take the bullet, as her father has strong opinions about everything.
Yet being away from everything, gives Mia the opportunity to overthink everything. And she realizes that she lost her spark.

What made me like and enjoy this story is the courage Mia is showing. She wants to do things that make HER happy, but not being totally selfish. She knows that her decisions will affect other people and she is looking for the best solution.

Mia finds what makes her happy and has had enough of just being a people – pleaser. And this is something more people should learn. Dare to change and make different decisions. Do not let your life be dictated by other people who will only use you as they please.

This story showed me that having courage will open new, other doors you didn’t dare to dream about and that you will find happiness as long as you follow your heart. It may result in the job of your dreams, true friends an even love.
