Steph and Pip have been best friends for thirty years. Pip has been recently left by her husband
with no idea where he went. Steph is
happily married to her successful husband, Julian, and has three amazing
boys. She finds out that Julian is
having an affair and, of course, is devastated.
Steph decides to get even, never imagining how her reaction will turn
her world upside down. Pip is surprised
when Steph asks her to say that she was with her on a Tuesday night.
Friends forever, happy marriage, and then an affair just to
stir it up. Sounds like just my kind of
novel and it was. When the story started
with Steph being a lonely student and Pip coming in as the new student taking
the school and classmates by storm, I knew I was hooked.
Steph is the responsible, organized wife and mother. Pip is the wild child, head in the clouds,
divorcee and mother. If asked to choose
my favorite I don’t think I could. Steph
is who I could relate to most. I also am
the organizer, responsible mom and wife.
I know exactly what has to be done, when it needs to bed done, and how
to get it done, usually. Pip is the
character I wish I was more like. I wish
I could be more carefree and easy going, but like her I would definitely need
to have that best friend to help me out.
I loved that so much background and description were given
throughout this novel. It made it easier
to understand where the characters were coming from with their different
thoughts and reactions to the situations in the story. I am hoping that we will hear more about
Steph and Pip in the future.
