The Year of Finallys

2008 should be the Year of Nina —the perfect wedding, finally making partner after twelve years with her firm, and mastery over the inner demons from the tragic event that still haunts her. But as the world careens toward financial crisis, Nina’s personal and professional lives begin to mirror all that is collapsing around her. First Nina’s fiancé abruptly ends their engagement, throwing her off her game and contributing to her stumble on the path toward partner at a big-four accounting firm. As a result, she is relegated to auditing a demolition company in Brooklyn, sidelining her from her high-profile investment banking client and an industry on the brink of disaster. When Nina seeks solace in the familiar arms of Rafa, her first—yet unreliable—lover, she finds that his commitment promises seem genuine this time. But when the financial crisis claims him, Nina must look to herself if she has any chance of making 2008 the Year of Nina.
