For two decades, thirty-nine-year-old Eden Clyde has been
enjoying wealth and glamour as the muse and lover of Otto
Clyde, the ultrafamous and much older king of the art world.
Genetically, she hit the lottery, but Eden is unlucky in
love: eighteen years ago she put aside her dream of true
love and marriage and turned a blind eye to Otto's
philandering in exchange for a life without want. In her
younger days this seemed like a fair bargain, but as forty
looms overhead-and as the beauty for which she's known
begins to fade-she feels the cost of the arrangement finally
taking its toll on her happiness.
Eden leaves their
cozy downtown loft for New York's frostier upper east Side,
where she begins to search for the girl and the life she
left so many years ago. With the encouragement of a raucous
but lovable group of girlfriends, Eden soon finds herself
embroiled in a heated love affair with Gotham's most
eligible bachelor: the much younger Chase Lydon. But just as
their relationship is getting serious, an old flame
resurfaces. Does Eden want the life she's living-and
loving-right now, or the love she left behind? On the brink
of her fortieth birthday, it's time for Eden to follow her
heart, but this time not even Eden is sure where that will
lead.
Poignant and laugh-out-loud funny, and
written with heart and humor, Arm Candy shows that
although forty may sometimes feel like the ultimate F word,
its never too late to find true love.
