After fifteen years of marriage, Camille knows how to keep a family running. Starting over is another matter entirely.
She has survived repeated betrayal, signed the divorce papers, and learned to share weekends with the man she once planned to grow old beside. Now she has four children, a demanding career, three opinionated friends, and a dating profile that has become a second job.
Dating in the Washington, DC, area delivers an education Camille never requested. Between awkward dinners, charming men with inconvenient omissions, and moments of unexpected tenderness, she discovers how easily the desire to be loved can interfere with the questions she needs to ask.
When a promising relationship begins moving toward forever, Camille wants to believe she has finally found someone who understands her life. But affection is easier to offer than an honest answer, and a beautiful beginning leaves plenty of room for unfinished conversations. With her children watching and everyone around her eager to celebrate, she must decide what she is willing to rearrange for another chance at love.
Witty, candid, and tender, Divorced in the City: Love, Lies, and Life After I Do is a novel about dating after divorce, the friendships that sustain us, and learning to trust your own judgment when hope makes a compelling argument.
For every woman who has wanted someone beside her without losing the life she worked so hard to rebuild.
