Resumen del Editor

Bess Culpepper has long been sure of two things - that her group of college friends would stay close, and that love is worth the wait. At 42, she's found the right man, and she's celebrating her upcoming wedding by inviting her best friends to beautiful Kennebunkport.

Bess has always been at the helm of these reunions, herding everyone together despite distance and outside commitments. As usual, Marta and Mike journey from their home near New York City, while Chuck and his husband, Dean, travel from Los Angeles. But Allison, half of a devoted couple since college, is making the trip from Chicago without her husband, Chris. None of the others knows the reason for their impending divorce. There are other tensions too. The usually level-headed Marta is conspicuously on edge, and Chuck reveals devastating personal news.

As reality encroaches on her dreams of the perfect gathering, Bess begins to second-guess her assumptions about friendship and fidelity. If relationships like these, nurtured over decades, can flounder, how can any couple stay committed? Is it possible to truly know the ones we love - or even to predict where one's own path will lead?

I did not like any of the Characters

This book is all about a bunch of air heads being manipulated by the biggest air head of them all. I could not stomach the rest of the book. The Character Bess was like reading about a 40 year old woman who wanted to be the most adored head cheerleader from high school. This woman was supremely selfish, stupid and a snitch to boot. I'm sorry but if you are a woman who has truly learned how to handle life at the rusty assed age of 40, this woman will make you want to kick her in the shins..there was a baby in the story and even he was more mature in the few mentions they made of him. I couldn't finish this book..even if you don't have children at 40 you should be able to impart some type of valuable wisdom to a younger girl trying to navigate her way through life. if this woman were responsible for the above task she would probably say " don't be mad on my special day, and I'm going to blab about your stress to everyone but you can't be mad at me when I do" what a stupid story. In my opinion she was a passive aggressive bully and the something blue at her wedding should have been the healing lumps on her forehead for blabbing secrets she was asked not to divulge.
