Single mom Jessica Taylor is trying to make it past forty with nothing more than moisturizer and a swipe of mascara. Her glamorous best friend, TV producer Lucy Baldor, has a different idea of aging gracefully. She has taken a very famous lover, and though her husband is bound to find out, Lucy’s too wrapped up in the joys of expensive lingerie to care. Jess lands in her own romantic predicament when her sexy French ex ends up back in her life—and in her bed. Whether navigating bake sales or bagels-and-Botox parties, who would have thought forty could be so much fun?
