DBF has done it again with a memorable and enjoyable story with warm characters that I can truly say I will miss now that it is done. This books main character is a little older than Franks usual female lead, but I thought she did a wonderful job of developing the story.

Leslie is the last remaining original wife in their group at the club and she is not enjoying the new spouses that her husband's friends have brought into the group, mainly because they are all half her age!

The book begins with her and her husband going through therapy separately to see if they are able to repair their marriage. Then the second part is the meat of the book and the author takes you back in time to see how they ended up in therapy and the why. I loved it. I liked the format that you knew that they were going to end up in therapy, but had no clue what brought them there - the therapy sessions weren't too obvious.

Another great read by Dorothea Benton Frank. A little bit different from her other books.
