Sorry, Sophie by Jamie Bennett

“Sometimes we just don’t see what’s right in front of us. We don’t appreciate people like we should.”
That’s what Daniel says, anyway. And was that the problem? Is that why he and Sophie Curran aren’t friends anymore? Is that why they didn’t speak for a decade, why she didn’t even know that he had come home to Detroit to stay?
It isn’t as if Sophie has been waiting around for him—no way, because she has a happy, successful life. Very happy. Very successful. Well, it’s mostly that way, no matter what her five sisters say about how she needs to change everything, from her relationships with men, to her wardrobe, to her furniture, and eventually, to her job. But it’s what their brother does with his own life that really throws everyone into a panic. His problems become Sophie’s responsibility…and her (kind of) happy, successful existence is thrown into disarray.
And then, there’s Daniel Ryder, suddenly right across the street! For all those years, she never even spared him a thought but now that he’s back, she can’t seem to bend her mind away from him and the memories of their friendship. She can’t seem to pull herself away from his presence, either. She also can’t extricate herself from the lies that she has told, to him and to everyone else. They’re the foundation of her (not really) happy, successful life, and how is she going to give that up?
Of course, if it’s yanked out from under her, the truth will burst free as well—and Sophie’s going to have to deal with that if she ever wants real happiness, with Daniel or with herself…
