New York Times bestselling author Barbara Delinsky weaves a stunning, intricate, and beautiful tapestry of life, love, and acceptance, first published in 1995.
With their daughters off to college, the time has come for forever best friends Emily, Kay, and Celeste to redefine themselves as women. Once half of a perfect marriage -- still suffering from a terrible loss -- Emily hardly knows her workaholic husband, Doug, anymore, and is drawn instead to what is offered by a new neighbor. A dedicated teacher who loves her job, Kay is confused and troubled by husband John's unfamiliar demands. And Celeste, long-divorced and ecstatic with freedom, sees her electric new life dimmed when her child is endangered.
The precious secrets, desires, and needs they've hidden for years can be denied no longer. But first, three women must learn the hardest lesson of all: how to love themselves.
