Meanwhile, the real work of Georgia’s life bustles all around her: her crazy-in-love 81-year-old mother, two best and brutally honest friends, and two daughters tentatively embarking on their own complicated lives-an expertly drawn cast of characters that includes the perfect foils for the alternately quixotic and practical Georgia. Here, 54-year-old optometrist Georgia Young, bored with her work and romantically adrift after two failed marriages, sets out to reinvent herself by examining the loves she left behind-providing a nifty three-step guide for finding “the Right One,” and then moving on when it turns out wrong-taking a train trip to Vancouver and turning a knack for design into a career. McMillan ( Who Asked You?) revs up middle age in a rambunctious showcase of the bestselling author’s keen ear for language, clear eye for the give-and-take of sex, love, and commitment, and heartfelt faith in happy endings.
