Valerie Wyatt is the queen of gracious living and the arbiter of taste. Since her long-ago divorce, shes worked hard to reach the pinnacle of her profession and to create a camera-ready life in her Fifth Avenue penthouse. So why is she so depressed? All the hours with her personal trainer, the careful work of New Yorks best hairdressers, cosmetic surgeons, and her own God-given bone structure and great looks cant fudge the truth or her lies about it: Valerie is turning sixty. Valeries daughter, April, has no love life, no rest, and no prospect of that changing in the foreseeable future. Her popular one-of-a-kind restaurant in downtown New York, where she is chef and owner, consumes every ounce of her attention and energy. Ready or not, though, Aprils life is about to change, in a tumultuous transformation that begins the morning it hits her: Shes thirty. And what does she have to show for it? A restaurant, no man, no kids. Jack Adams once threw a football like a guided missile.

A terrifying act of violence, an out-of-the-blue blessing, and two extremely unlikely love affairs soon turn lives inside out and upside down. In a novel brimming with warmth and insight, beginning on one birthday and ending on another, Valerie, April, and Jack discover that life itself can be a celebrationand that its greatest gifts are always a surprise.
