Two couples. Four friends. Their lives closelyintertwined
By familiar bonds of love, marriage, parenthood and companionship
. The husbands were best friends since college. The wives met each
other at work. Gabe and Karen introduced Tom and Beth to each other
. It's been a happy foursome for 12 years, sharing extravagant gourmet
dinners, vacations on Martha's Vineyard and child - rearing. They all
expected " to grow old and fat together, the four of us".
Then, one night at dinner, somewhere between the pumpkin risotto and
The lemon almond polenta cake, Beth dissolves into heaving sobs, blurting
Out the news that Tom is leaving her for another woman. This unexpected
Revelation catapults both couples into a reevaluation of their lives, their
Friendships, their marriages and their dreams of the future.
