Most of us at one point in our lives have thought about how it might have been if you had stayed with that old flame of our past.

This is no doubt a chick-lit read. A new neighbor moves in across the street. Although they are about the same age, they couldn’t be more different, but something draws them to the other.

Beth is a stay-at-home mom with two children. Rachel is a high-powered career woman from Manhattan with no desire to settle down for a family life. Rachel wears all the trendy clothes and has a body that Beth wish she had.

Both women end up meeting the men they knew from their past. Maybe they will get that old feeling back and continue where they left off or maybe the past should be left in the past.

The author lets us see into both woman’s lives and what they are thinking and feeling. The reader makes it so that it feels that they know these woman. This book is light-hearted and funny. It was a fast, enjoyable read. A well balanced story.

A perfect book to read when you are in the mood to not think much about what you’re reading. ( )
