Take the Paradise Heights Women’s League board. Lyssa Harper should have warned golden-haired DILF du jour Harry Wilder what he was getting into when she invited him to meet the mommies who run their suburban, gated community. At least he brought cupcakes. Since meeting the former Master-of-the-Universe turned stay-at-home single dad, Lyssa has been his domestic Sherpa, teaching him the ins and outs of suburban life. She just didn’t realize her friends would show up at his house unannounced with casseroles, leopard-print bikini briefs, and plans to rearrange his kitchen cabinets.
The truth is, if Harry and his wife, the neighborhood’s "perfect couple," can call it quits, what does that mean for everyone else? Lyssa’s husband, Ted, is a great father, but he pays her Pilates-pumped momtourage more attention than he does his own wife. Her friends gossip about the neighbors while ignoring their own problems: infertility, infidelity, and eating disorders.
When Harry sets boundaries with his new fan club, he is exiled from the neighborhood’s in-clique. But Lyssa refuses to snub him. What she never expects is the explosive impact her ongoing friendship with Harry will have on her close-knit pals—and on her marriage( Goodreads.com)
Interesting book of characters that happen to live the San Francisco area and the relationships between the moms and kids.
I think I had checked this book out from the library a while ago and read it because it seemed very familiar to me.
But this book has rich parents on the school board with cheating, flirting, and relationships.This is in the Bay Area--like the location because I could somewhat relate to it. Because there are always rich and poor people gossiping in neighborhoods.
This was interesting to see what happens in Marriage --when a partner doesn't stay in the marriage. They adults acted like the kids and the kids were at times more well behaved or acting their ages.
This was okay book.

ReplyDeleteI think I have this book on my TBR list, I may still give it a go but I'm not a big fan of immature adults and kids that have to grow up too fast. Wish it would have been a little better for you. Thanks for the honest review. :)
