Synopsis

Friendship, love, and forgiveness...

The Maxwells and the Popes have been friends forever. The women were college roommates, their husbands are partners in the same law firm, their kids have grown up next door to each other, and the two families share both vacations and holidays.

Like Wisteria Lane, the "perfect" suburban street of Desperate Housewives, all is beautiful and serene -- until an accident forces these close neighbors to look beneath the surface. And when their idyllic lives are unexpectedly shattered by a moment that can never be erased or forgotten, their faith in one another -- and in themselves -- is put to the supreme test.

In this moving, unforgettable story, Barbara Delinsky exquisitely captures the depth and complexity of the human heart as few writers can.

So imagine if it happens to two very close-knit families: The Maxwells: J.D. and Teke, their children Leigh, Jana and Michael. And the Popes, Sam, Annie, a......more

Goodreads review by Dawn on February 20, 2009

This is a story that explores how making the wrong decision in a moment of emotion can change the fabric of your life in a dramatic way. An interesting way to look at the subject of infidelity and make you realize how easy it may be to slip with the right circumstances. I did think the guy got off t......more

I will never read another Barbara Delinsky novel ever again. NEVER. Quote me. Cheating is my deal breaker. Most everyone knows it by now. But I read this book a while back when it wasn't as much of one and I was open to maybe seeing if it could be done right. No cop outs like the betrayed spouse is a......more
