Johnny Lennox, the lead guitarist of Love Sick Ponies, has tried to love in many ways. He has been a diligent and loving son. He has been an attentive and giving lover to groupies on the road. The one love he tried and failed at keeps him in a continuous cycle of obsession, compulsion, and self sabotage. To sum it up - Johnny can't get over his ex-lead singer and ex-fiance, Jules Delaney and it is ruining his life. Emily McDonald has always been on the straight and narrow. She is loved by many because she is such a nice and sweet woman. However, that is where the love ends for her. It's not real and it comes with many conditions. Her husband cheats, her parents expect her to follow their instructions, and her "friends" only want her around because she can pull together a mean potato salad at the last minute. One afternoon, Emily finds herself sabotaging her own life and heads to the Big Apple on a hunch that she can search out Jules, a long lost friend from elementary school. Jules would help her hide from her tidy life back home. Except Jules isn't there when she shows up. Johnny is there. Except Jules never comes back to rekindle her relationship with Johnny. Emily is there. Sharing their experiences from childhood into adulthood in this suspenseful and romantic novel about finding ones' purpose in life, Johnny and Emily find a different kind of love in one another. Something they never felt before. When the absolute unthinkable happens, they must defy instincts, expectations, and their own judgement to be there for one another. Are their brains so ingrained in the past that they will they walk away or will their unconventional future include one another
