From the author of Happiness for Beginners comes an unforgettable audiobook about finding joy even in the darkest of circumstances.
Margaret Jacobsen is just about to step into the bright future she’s worked for so hard and so long: a new dream job, a fiancé she adores, and the promise of a picture-perfect life just around the corner. Then, suddenly, on what should have been one of the happiest days of her life, everything she worked for is taken away in a brief, tumultuous moment. In the hospital and forced to face the possibility that nothing will ever be the same again, Maggie must confront the unthinkable. First there is her fiancé, Chip, who wallows in self-pity while simultaneously expecting to be forgiven. Then, there’s her sister Kit, who shows up after pulling a three-year vanishing act. Finally, there’s Ian, her physical therapist, the one the nurses said was too tough for her. Ian, who won’t let her give in to her pity and who sees her like no one has seen her before.
Sometimes the last thing you want is the one thing you need. Sometimes we all need someone to catch us when we fall. And sometimes love can find us in the least likely place we would ever expect.
How to Walk Away is Katherine Center at her very best – a masterpiece of an audiobook that is both hopeful and hilarious, truthful and wise, tender and brave.

Center Sends it Out of the Park I admit to being a Katherine Center fan for many reasons, the most important of which is that she keeps getting better. This book had me mesmerized from page 1.You feel the experiences of Margaret, the protagonist. I also understood the motivations and behaviors of the other characters. Being able to make the reader care about all of the characters is one of the things that makes some authors better than others. It’s relatively easy to make us understand the main character, but…
