Summary:
"A vibrant story of female friendship and midlife sexual awakening. Josie is a Manhattan psychotherapist living a comfortable life with her husband and daughter—until, while suddenly flirting with a man at a party, she is struck with the sudden realization that she must leave her passionless marriage. A thrillingly sordid encounter with a stranger she meets at a bar immediately follows. At the same time, her college friend Raquel, a Los Angeles rock star, is being pilloried in the press for sleeping with a much younger man who happens to have a pregnant girlfriend. This proves to be red meat to the gossip hounds of the Internet. The two friends escape to Mexico City for a Christmas holiday of retreat and rediscovery of their essential selves. Sex has gotten these two bright, complicated women into interesting
trouble
, and the story of their struggles to get out of that
trouble
is totally gripping at every turn. A tragicomedy of marriage and friendship,
Trouble
is a funny, piercing, and moving examination of the battle between the need for connection and the quest for freedom that every modern woman must fight."--Inside jacket.
