Synopsis

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Perfect comes a no holds-barred exploration of sex, marriage, and the fragility of life.

In this emotionally powerful novel, written in Ellen Hopkins's signature poetic verse style, three women face the humbling question: If I'm in the middle of my life, is this all I've got to show for it?

     Holly: Filled with regret for being a stay-at-home mom, she sheds sixty pounds and loses herself in the world of extramarital sex. Will it bring the fulfillment she is searching for?

     Andrea: A single mom and avowed celibate, she watches her friend Holly's meltdown with a mixture of concern and contempt. So what if Andrea picks up Holly's castaway husband?

     Marissa: She has more than her fair share of challenges—a gay, rebellious teenage son, a terminally ill daughter, and a husband who buries himself in his work rather than face the facts.

     In this story of connections and disconnections, one woman's up is another one's down, and all of them will learn the meaning of friendship, betrayal, and forgiveness.
