I found this book, The Lion Is In, on Sim's blog, and I should have taken her advice to read it earlier.

Here's the intro:
Three hours south of Baltimore. Six p.m. or so. June third. Two young women stand by the side on a rural two-lane highway. They are not sure what the road is or where it goes. In a frenzy, they left the interstate at a random exit, took one turn and then another. They are heading south, not intentionally.Also this week is Teaser Tuesdays. Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Open to a random page of your current read h and share a teaser sentence from somewhere on that page. BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers. Here's my teaser from page 213:
"Is someone being there for you the same as being your champion? I didn't have a champion but I had Lana."
Tracee doesn't want to be someone without a one. She doesn't want to be someone with zero. It seems doomed.
"I would like to be your one," says Tim.
"Isn't it too late?"
"Hell, no. I'm your one."
I'm really enjoying this book. You should give it a try.

I love Delia Ephron. Great author for a summer read. Here's my Tuesday post: http://www.bookclublibrarian.com/2013/06/first-chapter-first-paragraph-17-and.html
hmmm. I am curious for more. I think this has potential -- enjoy.
I read this one awhile ago...loved it! Thanks for sharing...and for visiting my blog.
I love all the Ephron sisters and their work!
I like the intro paragraph. I like the way the Ephron sisters write.
Who knew Nora had a writerly sister!
