Polly Dugan's The Sweetheart Deal (Little, Brown) is the poignant story of what happens when a woman who thinks she's lost everything has the chance to love again. Leo has long joked that, in the event of his death, he wants his best friend Garrett to marry his wife, Audrey. One drunken night, he goes so far as to make Garrett promise to do so. Then, 12 years later, Leo dies in a skiing accident. As Audrey navigates her new role as widow and single parent, Garrett quits his job and buys a one-way ticket out west. Before long, Audrey's feelings for Garrett become more than platonic, and Garrett finds himself falling for Audrey. When Audrey finds out about the drunken pact from years ago, the harmless promise that brought Garrett into her world becomes the obstacle to his remaining in it.
