My Year of Casual Acquaintances: A Novel

"A fun, entertaining novel! I cant imagine anyone who wouldnt enjoy this book as much as I did." -Leslie A. Rasmussen, award-winning author

Twelve months, 12 encounters, 12 chances for happiness.

When Mar Meyers husband leaves her for another woman, she makes a bold decision: she walks away from everything-her home, her friends, even her name.

Starting over in midlife isnt easy. But Mar is determined to reinvent herself-one month, one experience, and one casual acquaintance at a time.

As the year unfolds, Mar drifts in and out of unexpected encounters: a struggling gym friend, a flirty dance instructor, a hilariously overbearing consultant, a kind older gentleman... and Charlie, a charming bestselling novelist who wants more from Mar than shes ready to give.

Each connection teaches her something new. But keeping things casual comes at a cost-and sooner or later, Mar must decide: is she protecting herself... or holding herself back?

Filled with humor, heart, and an unforgettable cast of characters, My Year of Casual Acquaintances is a moving, often funny story about starting over, opening your heart, and embracing human connection.
