How It's Done

How It's Done Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Brought up in a fundamentalist home, 18-year-old Grace feels trapped by her overbearing father and timid mother. When college professor Michael Irving walks into Graces life, they begin an affair. Grace soon discovers that being involved with an older man is not all chardonnay and poetry.

Synopsis:

Brought up in a God-fearing home, eighteen-year-old Grace feels trapped in a ?suburban Alcatraz? by her hypocritical holy roller father and timid mother. And then he walks into her life . . . Michael Irving is a college professor, a man of the world, more likely to quote Shelley than scripture, and he's gorgeous. He is everything Grace has ever dreamed of?and he loves her. Freedom brings with it unanticipated complications, though, and Grace emerges from a cage only to find herself in a maze. She quickly discovers that being the lover?and then the fianc?e?of an older man is not all poetry and chardonnay. Told from Grace's perspective, How It's Done is an unflinching and insightful story of a young woman discovering who she wants to be.
