暢銷作傢2007年最新力作！獲得Publishers Weekly、美國圖書館協會Booklist 推薦。

很多夢想不能實現？但人總是還有作夢的權利吧！Connie Nixon 常常在星期天坐下來列清單：我最深的渴望是……。和女兒聯絡、恢復感情；在中午之前就開始喝酒；買一輛敞篷車；談一場戀愛、也許...重新有性生活？……。但是她一直隻停留在寫清單的階段，並沒有付諸行動。直到某一天在整理房子時，她意外地打開瞭一個盒子，發現瞭女兒的秘密：女兒 Jessica 在她的印象中是個一闆一眼的乖小孩，但事實上她的夢想是開一傢幫助女性享受性趣的用品店，而她在三年前搬到紐約開始努力實踐夢想，現在已經是是美國最成功的情趣用品連鎖店的股東之一，而且擔任執行長！ Connie 被女兒的「秘密生活」嚇壞瞭，衝動之下立即跳上飛機、衝到紐約的 Jessica 麵前，想要好好問個清楚。結果沒想到 Connie 反而被女兒塞進情趣用品分店工作，並且在女兒的「指導」下，展開瞭她的新人生。迴頭看看 Connie 的夢想清單，這不就正在一步一步實現中瞭哩！

作者以擅長寫作女性友誼見長，也獲得許多讀者的喜愛與肯定；但在這本新書中，作者勇敢地挑戰瞭「母女關係」這個睏難的主題，她也成功地寫齣瞭許多人理想中的母女關係：共同成長、互相支持。不落俗套、也不提供教條式的輕鬆風格，讓這本書意外的好看且吸引人。作者並提供瞭讀者會討論指引，讀者可以在這裡下載(PDF格式)。

Connie Nixon is no stranger to making lists. In fact, she has rewritten the list of her deepest desires no fewer than forty-eight times. And each Sunday, for as long as she can remember, she's tinkered with it. But actually doing something about her desires is a different story--until the night she comes across a box belonging to her estranged daughter...and makes a stunning discovery. It turns out that her seemingly straitlaced Jessica is part owner of one of the most successful sex toy shops in America. Shocked by her daughter's secret life, Connie tucks her list in her back pocket and does something utterly impulsive: she hops on a plane to New York City to track down Jessica--and winds up on the wildest adventure of her life. Because with her daughter's help, Connie's about to let her own inner bombshell see the light of day. Now, for the first time ever, things are flying off Connie's list. Like reconnecting with her daughter. And getting tipsy before noon. And the most startlingly extraordinary desire of all: falling in love.
