I thought the topics of divorce, betrayal, love and especially parenthood were well covered in this book. This is the second book I’ve read by Barbara Delinsky and definitely not the last. Her writing is smart, engrossing and sensual without being crass. I’m a fan.

I am used to Ms. Delinsky's characters having complex personalities and strength. Either I was busy being angry at Claire's female Walter Mitty victimization or at the ludicrous manner in which the judicial system is portrayed. I mean, really??? The sexual attraction between Claire and her business partner seemed to offer no spark at all. Perhaps this was because our heroine was "flat.". First and I hope last book in which I will be disappointed.
