Steve Halprin is no different than most college-educated, corporate professionals—a loyal employee of a prestigious computer and information technology giant that rewards loyalty with lifetime employment. Or different from most married men—faithful husband, reliable provider. Seduced by the promise of a better life, Steve follows in the footsteps of his shrewd best friend, negotiating a job transfer away from the snowy winters of Upstate New York to the temperate climate of North Carolina’s affluent, high-tech Research Triangle. Barely relocated, his better life begins to unravel, first with the news of his wife’s sudden life-threatening illness, then in his chance infatuation with a beautiful, elusive co-worker while his enviable work life and the career satisfaction he has taken for granted crumble around him. But the crush of his losses empowers him to pursue the only thing that matters—one distant hope of reclaiming his life.

Aaron Brody’s attempt to create the Great American Novel erupts spontaneously, sparked by the untimely death of his wife, Ruth. In the story he pens, Steve Halprin, Corporate Everyman and Aaron’s alter-ego, must walk the fine line between his quiet daydreams of beautiful elusive co-worker Linda Janisson and giving into his unrelenting temptation while he struggles to remain a reliable provider and faithful husband. In the end, with the covert help of his shrewd best friend Steve is handed a singular chance to reconnect with Linda. But for Aaron there is no happy ending, no woman to take Ruth’s place. The road back to happiness turns rough and unsteady as Aaron persists in trying to reproduce in real life the twist of fate he created in his bittersweet tale of love, loss, and recovery. Yet another twist of fate, one not of Aaron's creation, surrounds him with the promise of delivering the life he yearns to know again. Aaron just needs to stop chasing his fantasy long enough to see it.
