About this title

About the Author:

Claire Cross makes her home in Canada with her husband, far too many books, and a variety of undisciplined houseplants.

From Booklist:

Matt Coxwell believes his wife, Leslie, does not understand him, so he leaves her and their 13-year-old daughter, Annette, in Boston and goes to New Orleans to find his former girlfriend, an artist. Only after Matt leaves does Leslie start to evaluate her own life. Behind her prim exterior is a woman with fantastic lingerie and a great sense of humor, and she is determined to find out what she truly wants in life. Although Leslie supports the family, she starts to appreciate everything Matt did, especially making coffee in the morning. As she gives up control, she realizes what she has missed and hopes that Matt will reach the same conclusion so that they can save their marriage. Cross gives her readers an intimate portrait of a marriage and family dynamics that is by turns poignant and amusing. A witty and insightful look at serious issues pertaining to love and life that will win many fans. Patty Engelmann
