New York Times bestselling author returns with a powerful novel about marriage, friendship, betrayal and good intentions.Lynn Schuster didn’t expect the phone call from Marc Cameron, the other woman’s spouse. And she never expected to feel a strong attraction to him when they met and he offered her the perfect way to get even with her cheating husband. Savvy divorce lawyer Renee Bower warned Lynn to be careful. But Renee had a troubled marriage of her own; chilling suspicions about her stepdaughter’s hidden agenda and her handsome psychiatrist husband’s after-hours consultations were chipping away at her cool exterior. And now, as their lives unravel in counterpoint during this hot, explosive summer, Lynn and Renee are learning more than they ever wanted to know about love and betrayal.From the Paperback edition.From Publishers WeeklyRenee, a feisty lawyer, tolerates the cruelty and selfishness of her own husband as she shrewdly counsels a client whose husband has left her for another woman. "A fast read with an upbeat ending," wrote PW while remarking that "Fielding is less adept at kindling erotic sparks than she is at snarling her characters in recriminations." Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Library JournalContemporary women coping with marriages under stress are the stuff of Fielding's novels ( The Deep End , 1986; The Other Woman , 1983), and here she serves up a twofer. Social worker Lynn Schuster meets Marc Cameron after their spouses run off with each other, and there is a mutual attraction beyond curiosity and the desire for revenge. Shaken, Lynn turns to divorce lawyer Renee Bower for advice. And Renee ("Rhymes with beanie"), who's eating herself into obesity because of her philandering, manipulative psychiatrist husband, scheming stepdaughter, and suicidal sister, seeks Lynn during a crisis. If plot turns are occasionally broadly signaled, and some of the minor characters are stock, still the pace is brisk and the appeal and underlying strength of Lynn and Renee prevails.
