Kim Kincaid can't catch a break. She has a thankless job at a law office, a nasty co-worker, and a boyfriend allergic to genuine commitment. Meanwhile, her older sister, Dena, skates through life with a perfect husband, a perfect job, even a perfect daughter. Kim grits her teeth through their every phone call, counting the minutes until she can disappear into a drink or TV (preferably both). She doesn't recall agreeing to babysit her niece. She only remembers Dena bragging about yet another romantic getaway.
When Dena arrives-daughter and designer suitcases in hand-Kim can't admit her mistake. Her sister would only notch her scorecard with the latest blunder.
Kim won't let that happen. After all, two weeks isn't that long. How hard could it be?
With a fast-paced plot and a tender heart, Two Weeks of Summer chronicles one woman's journey to becoming the woman she always wanted to be-discovering along the way that family bonds run deeper than she ever thought possible. What will Kim ultimately decide? Stay in the life she's built? Or step outside her comfort zone into an uncertain future?
