About this ebook
From the bestselling author of The Elegant Gathering of White Snows comes a poignant, outrageous, refreshingly liberating story about one woman whose life takes an unexpected turn....
Meg Fratano has just witnessed the unthinkable: her husband of twenty—seven years making love to another woman. In her bed. And all Meg wanted to do was watch. Quietly, secretly, watch. Then she realized her life would never be the same.
Meg isn’t sure what she wants, but she knows it’s not what she had. After almost three decades of marriage and two children, she has finally awakened to how unhappy she is.
Now, with the help of friends old and new, and even her teenage daughter—a former brat who has blossomed into a startlingly wise young woman—Meg just might break through the chains of everyone’s expectations for her and find the strength to take the first step on her own path. To strip away a lifetime of inhibitions. To dance naked at the edge of dawn...

I love the opening scene - a woman walks in on her husband of twenty-seven years making love to another woman. In her bed. All she can do is watch. Quietly, secretly, watch. The shock is the beginning of a journey of self-discovery that includes a trip to the jungle in the Yucatan (one of my favourite places!). Parts of this book are transparently, cringingly chick-lit - but the author's voice makes it engaging. Kris Radish has a way of deftly capturing characters with a phrase, like, "She is right down the middle on the right brain - left brain scale and when she pauses like this this I know it is because she cannot decide if she should follow her heart or go work up a pie chart to see what to do next."
About the author
