Eloise is content with her solitary life as a successful
private chef. She has her clients, her corgi, and a recipe
for the world’s most perfect chocolate cream pie. What
more could she need? But when her favorite teacher dies
and her long lost trio of high school friends reunites at
the wake, Eloise is confronted by how lonely she really
is.
In honor of Mrs. O’Connor, Eloise, Lynne, and Teresa
revamp their senior class assignment and dare each other
to create a bucket list of things to accomplish by the
time they each turn forty in May. Together, they choose
new goals for each other. Control freak Lynne has to get a
dog; Teresa has to spice up her marriage with pole dancing
classes; and Eloise has to enter the dreaded world of
dating.
Enter Shawn, a hunky ex-athlete and the first man that
Eloise could see herself falling for. Suddenly forty
doesn’t seem so lonely—until a chance encounter reveals
that Shawn’s ex is actually Lynne! Will the bucket listers
make it to forty still as friends? Or do some friendships
come with an expiration date?
