Recently divorced, Anna Dunlap had two passionate attachments: to her daughter, four-year-old Molly; to her lover, Leo, the man her made her feel beautiful - and sexual - for the first time. They were a magical threesome - a little drunk on happiness and passion. Anna never expected the shocking changes that would threaten her new love, her new "family" .... that would force her to prove that she was a "good mother".

(this was made into a movie with Liam Neeson)
