Lee, “the normal one,” longs for a baby—and overwhelming desire that threatens to destroy her idyllic marriage. Isabel, divorced and free, is falling for her neighbor, a man whom she is sure is gay. For the past ten years their unexpected friendship has helped them cope with husbands, lovers, careers, children and everything in between. Though they’ve always been there for each other, when tragedy strikes their love, loyalty, and courage is put to the ultimate test.
