Riassunto

Maggie Owen has given up her day job and resigned herself to a life of playground moms and soiled clothing—until the day she runs into Claire Masterson. Claire was the girl at school Maggie always wanted to be, and (surprise, surprise) it's as if nothing has changed. Claire still has everything—and Maggie's life, as the mother of two young boys, is utter chaos. But when it seems that Claire knows a little too much about Maggie's boyfriend, Jake, Maggie starts thinking the unthinkable, and the lengths to which she goes to uncover the truth and regain her confidence throw her life—and her relationship with Jake—for a loop.

Recensione:

"Durrant writes about the vulnerability and diminished self-image peculiar to women with young children with honesty and humor." —The Sunday Times (London)

"Durrant's funny, intelligent, and self-deprecating heroine is a worthy, more grown-up successor to the single Bridget Jones." —Publishers Weekly

"Remember the girl you always wanted to be at school, the most grown-up, the best-looking one? This book imagines bumping into her again when you're all grown up and thought you were finally over such jealousies...only to realize you aren't." —Glamour (UK)
