It wasn't supposed to be like this, but ten years ago,  she put her journalism career on hold and moved back to the city to care for her dying mother. Of course, she can't be salty about \u003cem\u003ethat.\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen everything changes when Mandy wins a one-hundred-plus-year-old newspaper in Vermont AND the apartment over it-a New Yorker's dream! The only catch? She must run \u003cem\u003eThe Liberty Eagle\u003c\/em\u003e for one year, and can't sell it to a conglomerate until that year is up.

He just may be her best friend. Maybe the love of her life.
