I like my heroes strong and my heroines feisty, and this book had neither. Sophie is a twenty-something with a successful career in theater who has a bulimia diagnosis and a two year secret affair with Duane. We're told Duane is a great guy, but he's never let Sophie into his life because he's in his forties. Now that he's running for public office their relationship reaches a crisis point. Will he acknowledge his love for her? Honestly, I had to force myself to finish this. It was much too introspective for my tastes. I didn't really like either character or understand why they liked each other.
