Hazel Chamberlayne can. She's turning forty. And do you know what? She's excited about it. Successful by her own standards, flanked by a group of magnetic friends, she feels as if life is genuinely beginning for her.
Okay. Hazel would like a man. Though seeing the dregs of relationships every day as a divorce lawyer means she doesn't have much hope in men, much luck with men nor much time to look for them, period.
However, when fellow divorce lawyer Joe Ryan appears β a man ten years her junior, with a long-standing live-in girlfriend β he challenges Hazel's beliefs about who men are and what they want. And what will make her happy in life. Because this man may be different. May be.
