Help A Bitch Out - SOLVED!

Help: It’s Been Driving Her Nuts for Years

You did it! We figured this one out! It is a truth universally acknowledged (by me for certain) that the Bitchery pretty much knows everything, and really, it's true. Scroll down to see the solution for this HaBO - and many thanks!

Bitchery Reader Amanda asks for your brilliant assistance:

I never actually read this book, but I read the excerpt in the back of
another romance and thought “that sounds fun in a melodramatic family
soap opera sort of way” and told myself I’d pick it up on my next trip
to the bookstore. Except I forgot. And by the time I remembered the
book the excerpt had been in had been weeded out of my romance collection.

So here’s what I remember: contemporary, takes place in the Pacific
Northwest (part of me would swear to Oregon, but its highly possible
it’s either Washington or Northern California too). Girl was in love
with her older sister’s boyfriend for years, older sister went off to
conquer the world, boyfriend and younger sister have a Night of Passion
that results in pregnancy. They get married. Now, ten years later,
they’re getting divorced/have been recently divorced despite the fact
that she’s still desperately in love with him. To top it off, her older
sister’s coming home for the first time in years!

Our heroine was named Allison and I think her sister was Terra or
Tessa. I also distinctly remember the hero being quietly angry in the
first chapter because Allison showed up early to pick up their daughter.

I think it might be a Barbara Delinsky, but again, I wouldn’t swear to it.

Ring a bell anyone? Anyone? Beuller?

    I think it’s ‘Just the Way You Are’ by Barbara Freethy. This one drove me crazy because it was right on the tip of tongue and for the life of me I couldn’t remember the author’s name. After walking the dog it finally came to me.

    i’m absolutely sure it’s’ Just the Way You Are’, by Barbara Freethy.  The
    heroine is Allison Tucker, who loves her Sam but thinks he still has the hots for her sister Tess.

    Y’all are amazing.  I knew it was Barbara something! Thanks.

    Right answer in the first post only 1 and 1/2 hours after the question is posted to the main page. 

    Hot damn!  The bitches are good.  I just wish someone would ask one that I know.
