Historia
Jess Lawson, a 45-year-old healthcare consultant, wife, and mother of two, has spent most of her adulthood fostering the illusion of having a perfect life. Her impending empty-nest syndrome as her youngest child prepares to start college is troubling enough, but when her doctor husband, Arthur, announces his intention to take a prestigious new job on the other side of the country - and relocate without Jess - her world quickly crumbles.

What a great read any time of the year! An engaging story about the modern career woman who is also a dedicated wife and mother. This book does an amazing job depicting the high points and pitfalls that come with the territory of juggling it all - through the good times and bad. Though Jess's world is rocked when Arthur announces his infidelity, she uses her inner strength while leaning on her amazing core group of girlfriends and the love from her children to get through it. Jess and her friends demonstrate how you can get through any curve ball in life by focusing on staying active, staying busy and leaning on those who love you to get through it. I personally love books that break through gender stereotypes and this book does it for me - the female lead and her friends are ambitious, bold, tough when needed, while also being empathetic and caring. I also loved the relationship among the girlfriends - so fun and relatable. The core message, however, is the cherry on top of this excellent story in that you are in control of your life and have the power to turn it any way you wish - no matter what. Inspiring - highly recommend!
