The Younger Man

Does life really begin at forty?

Successful, divorced divorce lawyer Hazel Chamberlayne is sexy, independent and about to hit forty. Hazel also has a group of friends she loves and trusts, who love and trust her…and she doesn’t need a man. Not, that is, until the intelligent, engaging and ten years younger Joe Ryan becomes a new partner in the law firm.

It’s one thing to spice things up with the occasional passionate indulgence, but in a job where the path of true love runs straight into the divorce courts, Hazel isn’t sure she can believe in her own happy ever after.

Though, just like a bikini wax, isn’t love supposed to be less painful the second time round?
