発行者による作品情報
The new edition of a modern classic by New York Times bestselling and award-winning author Mary Monroe, this poignant and passionate novel in the acclaimed God series features unforgettable lifelong friends Annette Goode Davis and Rhoda O’Toole—two women whose best intentions don't always yield the best results . . .
Even though her life has its ups and downs, Annette feels lucky. Most of all, she’s grateful that her husband, Pee Wee, took her back after he discovered she was having an affair. The trouble is, while Pee Wee agreed to give Annette another chance, she's not sure his heart is really in it. Rhoda is quick to point out that Annette got herself into this mess; now she has to be patient until Pee Wee forgives her. But time may be running out.
Annette’s suspicions are confirmed when Pee Wee moves out—and in with his new lady. She takes the news hard and so does her daughter, Charlotte. Annette won’t let her family go without a fight, but she also knows she must prepare for the worst—because one lesson she’s learned all too well is that when life kicks you in the teeth, you have to come out swinging.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Monroe tacks on another witty and wise installment to her God series (God Ain't Blind; etc.), picking up after Annette Davis's disastrous affair with a con man. This time out, Annette's long-suffering perfect husband, Pee Wee, turns the tables and dumps Annette for his barbershop's manicurist, Lizzie Stovall. Annette feels especially betrayed because she'd helped Lizzie, a former classmate, get that job. But life must go on, and after Lizzie and Pee Wee move in together, Annette embarks on a questionable affair with an old flame and worries about her 11-year-old daughter, who's growing up way too fast. Also making waves is Jade Marie, whose marriage to milquetoast LaVerne takes a shocking turn. If this raunchy and rambunctious book is any indication, Monroe's series has a lot of life left in it.
