Women's Fiction
Gail. Hannah. Bridget. Lizzy. Flavia. Each of them has a
shameful secret, and each is about to find out that she is
not alone… Gail, a prominent Boston judge, keeps receiving
letters from her husband’s latest girlfriend, while her
husband, a theology professor, claims he’s nine-months
sober
from sex with grad students. Hannah, a homemaker, catches
her husband having sex with a male prostitute in a public
restroom. Bridget, a psychiatric nurse at a state
hospital,
is sure she has a loving, doting spouse, until she learns
that he is addicted to chat rooms and match-making
websites.
Lizzy, a high school teacher, is married to a porn addict,
who is withdrawn and uninterested in sex with her. Flavia
was working at the Boston Public library when someone
brought her an article that stated her husband had been
arrested for groping a teenage girl on the subway. He must
face court, and Flavia must decide if she wants to stay
with
him. Finally, Kathryn, the young psychologist running the
group, has as much at stake as all of the others. As the women share never-before-uttered secrets and bond
over painful truths, they work on coming to terms with
their
husbands’ addictions and developing healthy boundaries for
themselves. Meanwhile, their outside lives become more and
more intertwined, until, finally, a series of events
forces
each woman to face her own denial, betrayal and uncertain
future head-on.
