This is no crush, and for six blissful years she fills her hope chest with linens, dinnerware, and dreams of an idyllic future with John. When he is killed in action in Viet Nam, Dani's world shatters. She launches a one-woman vendetta against the men she seeks out in Rush Street's singles bars. Her goal: break as many hearts as she can. Dani's ill-conceived vengeance leads her to a loveless marriage that ends in tragedy. At twenty-four, she's left a widow with a baby, a small fortune, and a ghost-make that two.</p><p>Set in the turbulent Sixties and Seventies, <em>Just One Look</em> explores one woman's tumultuous journey through grief, denial, and letting go.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"If you've ever lost the love of your life, you will be moved reading <em>Just One Look</em> by Joanne Kukanza Easley and will become an instant fan of this author's writing." <strong><em>-Readers' Favorite</em></strong></p><p>"Set against the backdrop of already-turbulent times, Just One Look's story of a girl who evolves into a young woman seeking a different path makes for an engrossing story of loss, revenge, redemption, shame, and recovery that many women will readily relate to, in different ways." <strong>-D.
