Emily Giffin, Jane Green, and Rachel Gibson fans take note: when it comes to delivering delightfully funny, supremely sexy contemporary women’s fiction, nobody but nobody is better than Susan Elizabeth Phillips.

As they become close friends the young woman offers Rachel a gift that will change many people's lives. But her loving, patient husband has been withdrawing lately.
