Publisher Description

Author Bettye Griffin pens novels featuring contemporary women trying to make sense of a crazy world. When middle-aged divorcee Emily Yancy moves home to be with her ailing mother, she's not expecting to find romance. But Aaron Merritt is a handsome doctor with all the right moves-except when it comes to the bedroom. Then there's Teddy Simms, her former crush whose only skills seem to lie between the sheets. What will Emily choose-happiness or sexual fulfillment?

"This book was a very good read. It had a surprising end that left me wanting a sequel."

Quotes

  • “Shari Peele is a perfect fit as Emily and her black middle-class world of anxiety and aspiration. Peele has great character range across both age and gender. Her skills give empathy to a story that could, with a lesser performer, sound tawdry and trite.”

    — AudioFile
  • “Griffin expertly explores the universal search for love and the difficulties that face women of a certain age.”

    — Booklist

    " This was very frustrating to listen to because the main character goes around and around on one issue that she could have cleared up with one little conversation. "

    " This book was good but I can say it wasn't my favorite book. I wish that Emily and Aaron would have worked out but she did what she felt was best for her. So that is a good thing. Maybe her and the guy she met on the plane (Michael) will work out. :) "
