About this book

Book Summary

Claudia and Ben are the perfect couple. Ever since their first date, when they both admitted they had no desire for children, their courtship and marriage seemed destined. Their relationship is about freedom, possibility and exploration. About being together because they want to be together. Not because children are caging them with eighteen years of obligation. But then Ben changes his mind: He does want children, after all.

Media Reviews

"Standard fare as far as chick lit goes, but there are strong subplots... produc[ing] above-average tension." - PW
"A fast-paced and interesting look at the various ways women view motherhood and pregnancy" - Library Journal
"Giffin once again proves she's one of the best chick-lit writers in this thoughtful, layered, and wholly original story of a woman facing a major choice in her life." - Booklist.
