From New York Times bestselling author Kristan Higgins comes a funny and surprising new novel about losing it all—and getting back more than you ever expected.

Lillie Silva knew life as an empty nester would be hard after her only child left for college, but when her husband abruptly dumps her for another woman just as her son leaves, her world comes crashing down. Besides the fact that this announcement is a complete surprise (to say the least), what shocks Lillie most is that she isn’t … heartbroken. She’s furious.

Lillie has loved her life on Cape Cod, but as a mother, wife, and nurse-midwife, she’s used to caring for other people … not taking care of herself. Now, alone for the first time in her life, she finds herself going a little rogue. Is it over the top to crash her ex-husband’s wedding dressed like the angel of death? Sure! Should she release a skunk into his perfect new home? Probably not! But it beats staying home and moping. She finds an unexpected ally in her glamorous sister, with whom she’s had a tense relationship all these years. And an unexpected babysitter in, of all people, Ben Hallowell, the driver in a car accident that nearly killed Lillie twenty years ago. And then there’s Ophelia, her ex-husband’s oddly lost niece, who could really use a friend. Oh, add in Melissa Finch.

It’s the end of Lillie’s life as she knew it. But sometimes the perfect next chapter surprises you … out of the clear blue sky.

“Narrators CJ Bloom and Xe Sands deliver a fantastic dual performance of a unique story told from two perspectives. Lillie becomes a jaded empty nester after her husband leaves her for another woman and she is left to her own devices to figure out what’s next in her life. Interestingly, the novel’s other perspective follows the other woman, Melissa, who is doing everything she can to maintain the self-disciplined lifestyle of a businesswoman. Despite their different approaches, both narrators ultimately depict two exhausted women who are searching for relief and meaning in their lives: Lillie, jaded from a pending divorce and lonely household, and Melissa, struggling to remain afloat in a fast-paced world.” — AudioFile 20
