Novel Women — Multiple Authors

When middle age hits â€" it hits hard. Marriages fall apart, children leave for college, and jobs disappear.

She basks in sex without intimacy…until romance finds her. • Ava, a successful businesswoman hangs on to her marriage and business, both of which are threatened by her husband's secrets. • Hanna overwhelmed and neglected by her workaholic husband, she endangers her marriage of 16 years by lusting after her daughter's handsome soccer coach. Through their summer of confusion and rediscovery, heartache and loss, these Novel Women manage to grow closer by the ever-enduring power of love and friendship. And along the way they have the best sex of their lives.
