Meet Georgia Young, a 50-something optometrist whose comfortable life is upended by news of her first boyfriend's death in a car accident. Georgia reacts to the jolt by chucking her career, putting her house on the market, and resolving to track down all her past sweethearts. Lucky for her, two of her college friends and her daughters are always there to catch her if she falls. McMilllan paints relationships in joyous primary colors; her novel brims with sexy repartee, caustic humor, and a fluent, assured prose that shines a bright light on her memorable characters. Her very best since Waiting to Exhale.
