'A love story for anyone who tends to overthink things' Maile Meloy

In her late thirties, book designer Jane Louise Parker has started to worry she will never find someone to marry. Until she meets Teddy, whose native decency leaves her almost breathless at her good fortune.

After their wedding, Jane Louise returns to work at a small publishing house, but struggles to think of herself as older, wiser, more grown-up.

Soon though she, along with her best friend Edie, will find out whether motherhood might just be the ultimate dividing line between youth and something else.

Laurie Colwin's final novel joyfully explores friendship, love, marriage, motherhood and families created in their own particular way.
