He was a man who didn't deserve a second chance. But he needed one...
Emily and her husband Sandy Portman seemed to live a gracious if busy life in an old-world, Upper West Side New York apartment in the famous Dakota building. But one night on the way to meet Emily, Sandy dies in a tragic accident. The funeral isn't even over before Emily learns she is on the verge of being evicted from their apartment. But worse than the possibility of losing her home, Emily is stunned when she discovers that her marriage was made up of lies.
Suddenly Emily is forced on a journey to find out who her husband really was . . . all the while feeling that somehow he isn't really gone. Angry, hurt, and sometimes betrayed by loving memories of the man she lost, Emily finds comfort in a scruffy dog named Einstein. But is Einstein's seemingly odd determination that she save herself enough to make Emily confront her own past? Can he help her find a future―even after she meets a new man?
Linda Francis Lee's Emily and Einstein is a heartwarming novel of love and second chances.

A man who doesn't deserve a second chance. A woman who finds one where she least expects it. And the lovable dog named Einstein who shows them the way . . .
Emily Portman is an up-and-coming New York City editor whose life is everything she imagined it would be. She has a job she loves and a beautiful Upper West Side apartment with her husband, Sandy. But everything changes in one night when Sandy dies in a tragic accident, and soon Emily is stunned to discover that her marriage was made up of lies. Haunted by distorting memories of the man she lost, Emily's only comfort is a mysterious, scruffy dog named Einstein, who comes into her life at just the right moment―and stands by her side as she confronts her own past, and embarks on finding new and true love.
"In this completely one-of-a-kind story, Lee deftly combines fantasy and reality for an emotional punch that's as unexpected as it is satisfying. You will HAVE to keep turning the pages." ―Patricia Gaffney, New York Times bestselling author of The Saving Graces
