Behaving badly is the only way Delilah can get her high-powered mother's attention. So when her grandmother, from whom Delilah's mother has been estranged, dies, Delilah's not sure what will ensue when she and Mom head to Vermont to settle the estate. Although Delilah's self-pitying can grow tiresome, the evolving family dynamic is engrossing and the romance plot is genuinely touching.
