In a wealthy New York suburb, forty-one-year-old divorced mom Sara Turner is juggling a new fiancé, a new TV career, and a Newcomer’s Club that throws sex-toy parties. Her dearest friend, Kate Steele, a hotshot Park Avenue skin doctor, is being romanced by a real estate mogul who happens to be married. And Sara’s new neighbor, Berni Davis, has just quit her high-powered career to have twins, trading in the fast track for the cul-de-sac. At a time in life when women expect to find doors closing, Sara, Kate, and Berni find new options and unexpected twists: a baby shower starring a male stripper, a long-gone husband’s surprise return, a seductive ex-wife’s sudden advances, and a hunky soap star waiting in the wings. In a world where women spend their forties trying to look thirty, these savvy friends help one another keep their priorities straight. Most of the time.

From bestselling author of The Book of Delights and award-winning poet, a book of lyrical mini-essays celebrating the everyday that will inspire readers to rediscover the joys in the world around us. In Ross Gay’s new collection of small, daily wonders, again written over the course of a year, one of America’s most original voices continues his ongoing investigation of delight. For Gay, what delights us is what connects us, what gives us meaning, from the joy of hearing a nostalgic song blasting from a passing car to the pleasure of refusing the “nefarious” scannable QR code menus, from the tiny dog he fell hard for to his mother baking a dozen kinds of cookies for her grandchildren. As always, Gay revels in the natural world—sweet potatoes being harvested, a hummingbird carousing in the beebalm, a sunflower growing out of a wall around the cemetery, the shared bounty from a neighbor’s fig tree—and the trillion mysterious ways this glorious earth delights us. The Book of (More) Delights is a volume to savor and share.

Jake Guarani wonders how he’s gotten into being such a bigtime provider. A contractor on Chicago’s North Shore making low six figures, he’s got a wife who’s a stay-at-home mom and a daughter with tutoring, ballet class, and kid soccer. Hard not to feel taken for granted, the family workhorse, taken for granted. In his sex life, Jake has always gotten his pleasure from giving women a good time. He’s that kind of “provider” too. Closing in on 40, he figures it’s now or never if he wants to satisfy his curiosity about casual sex with other guys. That’s not exactly cheating, is it? Surprise comes when Jake begins to want more than hot motel quickies with a wealthy old-family Winnetka gentleman. What’s going on here? As the song says, ‘This can’t be love,’ right? And if it is, if he’s a “real” bisexual, Jake’s nicely put together world will get turned on its ear.
