Description
What do you do when your best friend is getting married and you're incapable of having a normal, loving relationship that lasts more than six months? Fall for the homely guy who works in your video store who sleeps with you once and never calls you again for reasons you'd never guess? Rekindle a romance with an old boyfriend who is addicted to twelve step meetings and phone sex? Force yourself to be attracted to the one guy you know is "good" for you?
And what if you're the one who's about to get married and suddenly feel this overwhelming sexual repulsion to your fiancé? Call it off and develop a crush on one of your psychiatric patients, when you already feel insecure as a therapist to begin with? Find fault with every little thing your fiancé does, like acting too nice to waitresses or disregarding a birthmark on his body that you're seriously convinced is eating him alive?
While the circumstances of Amelia and Laura's difficult times may be drastically different, both friends are going through very much the same thing. They're growing out of their childhood friendship as they knew it, and entering into a time of change that tests not only their private worlds, but the world they've shared together.
