Romance Contemporary
Called “a warm and well-written case for love affairs in
later life” (Daily Telegraph), Thursdays in the
Park was a runaway best-seller in the united Kingdom.
Boyd’s debut novel is a touching, romantic tale of new
attraction and old loyalties. Jeanie is on
the brink of turning sixty, and the man she’s been married
to for more than half of her life has suddenly abandoned the
marital bed. When Jeanie’s husband George retreats from his
conjugal duties, she is deeply hurt and very confused: Has
she done something wrong? Is he in love with someone else?
Her pained bewilderment turns to anger as he remains unable,
or unwilling, to provide answers. The bright spot of
Jeanie’s week is Thursday, the day she takes her
granddaughter to the park. There, one day, she meets Ray —
age-appropriate, kind-hearted, easygoing, and downright
sexy. In short, he is everything that George is not. As her
relationship with Ray begins to blossom and she begins to
think that her life might hold in store a bold second act,
she begins to wonder if she has the courage to take a step
off the precipice of routine and duty and into the swirling
winds of romance.
