In the most recent novel from Duffy (Bond Girl; Lost Along the Way), Claire's perfect life—a handsome husband, a beautiful home, a healthy new baby boy—drastically changes when she catches Owen conducting an affair in her own home. In shock but strong, Claire does what she can to move forward. Among the many problems she faces is that she's completely uprooted her life to start anew with Owen in a town away from her family and support group. Claire also has to find her own personal value and meaning to pursue her dreams. Here, Duffy demonstrates there are many paths to be traveled in life and that sometimes one's well-laid plans don't equal happiness. For Claire, freeing herself to be open to what life has to offer may change everything.
VERDICT A surprisingly humorous, empowering read about embracing second and third chances. A must-read for women of all ages.
