Love for beginners : a novel

Shalvis, Jill. (Author).

When Emma Harris wakes up from a coma she learns that her fiancé and her BFF have fallen in love, she's lost her job, and the life she knew is gone. Overwhelmed but grateful to be alive she starts over from scratch. Not as easy as it sounds, of course. But she's never been a quitter, even if she wishes she could quit rehab, where her hot but evil physical therapist, Simon, puts her through the wringer. Eager for a new beginning, Emma opens a doggy day care. Unfortunately, the only space she can afford is owned by her childhood nemesis Ali Pratt. But hey, she's been through worse, right? She tries to roll with the punches, but a friend drops his grandpa off at the doggy day care in desperation then on top of that, she and Ali bring the term 'frenemies' to a whole new level. And then another grandparent shows up. And another. In the midst of all that, Emma realizes she's accidentally fallen for Evil PT. But the most horrifying thing of all is that Ali just might have turned into the best friend she's ever had. And as Emma grows from the pain of her past and takes on her new path, she comes to realize that life isn't what you're given, it's what you make of it.
