EDIE MCCLURE has been without a man too long—six years too long. Her son, Tommy, has an eighteen-year-old best friend, JON, who arouses long-dormant feelings in her, feelings he shares. Okay, so there are worse things than being a cougar, but there’s a big complication. Jon’s mother, GWEN, is Edie’s best friend. The two single mothers and their boys have been inseparable friends for years. Then Gwen makes a successful and very satisfying pass at Edie and the complications get deeper and wider.
If Edie succumbs to her pent-up lust for this hot, young man, how will Gwen react if she discovers the secret? The tension and the heat reach a climax at a pool party Edie throws for Tommy and the heat becomes searing in the weeks that follow.
