The Year We Turned Forty
Fenton Liz
If you could repeat one year of your life, what would you do differently?This heartwarming and hilarious novel from the authors ofThe Status of All ThingsandYour Perfect Life
features three best friends who get the chance to return to the year
they turned forty—the year that altered all of their lives, in ways big
and small—and also get the opportunity to change their future.
Jessie
loves her son Lucas more than anything, but it tears her up inside that
he was conceived in an affair that ended her marriage to a man she
still loves, a man who just told her he's getting remarried. This time
around, she’s determined to bury the secret of Lucas’ paternity, and to
repair the fissures that sent her wandering the first time.
Gabriela
regrets that she wasted her most fertile years in hot pursuit of a
publishing career. Yes, she’s one of the biggest authors in the world,
but maybe what she really wanted to create was a family. With a chance
to do it again, she’s focused on convincing her husband, Colin, to give
her the baby she desires.
Claire is the only one who has made
peace with her past: her twenty-two year old daughter, Emily, is finally
on track after the turmoil of adolescence, and she's recently gotten
engaged, with the two carat diamond on her finger to prove it. But if
she’s being honest, Claire still fantasizes about her own missed
opportunities: a chance to bond with her mother before it was too late,
and the possibility of preventing her daughter from years of anguish.
Plus, there’s the man who got away—the man who may have been her one
true love.
But it doesn’t take long for all three women to learn
that re-living a life and making different decisions only leads to new
problems and consequences—and that the mistakes they made may, in fact,
have been the best choices of all…
