Summary:

After the dot-com bubble burst, Dan Porter is laid off from his job
and must decide what is truly important. His wife of twenty years,
Jackie, a beautiful and successful managing director at a clothing
designer shop, no longer connects with him. His teenagers, Josh,
Nina, and Millie, are distant and confusing. Jackie is tempted by the
attentions of a younger man at her office, and thanks to an
opportunity suggested by a magazine article, Dan finds himself
contemplating a drastic change in his life.A Risk Worth Taking is an
insightful, thought-provoking novel of a man who has to discover what
he really values in his work, marriage, and life. Robin Pilcher
writes fluidly and well, and he is unerringly adept at capturing the
details of his characters' lives. He has written a poignant and
engrossing story about the real choices many adults face when they
start taking stock of their lives.
