Synopsis

He reversed into her mailbox because of Bonnie Tyler.
She came outside in a yellow bathrobe.
It was September 1983, and nothing in Crestwood, Ohio
was ever quite the same again.

Danny Reardon is twenty-six years old, stuck in his uncle's
insurance firm, and quietly burying the architecture career
he actually wants in a bottom drawer under a building code
manual. He has been "figuring things out" for two and a half
years and is, by his own admission, getting worse at it.

Nora Kazinski has just driven from Pittsburgh with no plan,
a sketchpad, and the keys to her late grandmother's house on
Mulberry Street. She is a graphic designer between lives,
a woman who notices everything, and she is absolutely not
interested in being anyone's project.

Then Danny fixes her mailbox. Then her porch step. Then her
portfolio. Then her kitchen table argument teaches him
something important about the difference between caring for
someone and controlling them.

Told entirely from Danny's wonderfully self-aware perspective,
The Long Way Around Mulberry Street is a funny, warm, and
deeply emotional love story set against the backdrop of 1980s
small-town America — a place of ceramic owls, milk-white
October mornings, Thursday diner booths, and the particular
genius of ordinary people living their lives with complete
attention.

Because some buildings are designed in bottom drawers for
two years before anyone believes in them enough to build them.
And some love stories take the long way around.

This is the first book in the Mulberry Street Series.
Book Two is coming.
