 Connie is happily married to Luke, has a charming home and spangly groovy friends. The Happy-Ever-After-Life picture perfect.
Enter John Harding, habitual womanizer, the definitive Lothario. Armed with flattery and devilish good looks he seduces Connie and the two begin a torrid affair. This intoxicated state leaves her wondering whether this ravishing rogue is not indeed her true destiny and has she not just settled for Mr. Nice-and-Safe? Does she come to her senses or go with her hunch?
It's sexy and hilarious in equal measure. A laughable look at marriage as an institution and how it could drive you to one. What happens when a married woman falls in lust?
A very successful first novel told with a humorous tone but simultaneously warning of the dangers of infidelity.
This novel is a must read for every woman, "it's the closest you'll get to having an affair without actually having one."
