A splendid Hudson River estate, complete with cook and rose garden.
The landscape is inebriating, the women are in full, passionate
bloom, and the men are incomprehensible. Susie-chic, smart, spacey,
and no longer promiscuous - decides, at forty-five, to do what she
would have done at twenty-five: invite a group of amusing friends to
spend eight weekends of summer in stunning surroundings. The invitees
include her oldest friend, Kay, elegantly nursing a broken heart; her
former lover Dodge-still the sexiest man she knows; his randy,
neurotic, comedian friend Ron; and Elise, an on-the-cusp artist
determined to be in a relationship before she hits forty. Add to the
mix Susie's very ardent, very surprising twenty-four-year-old son,
and an exhibitionist au pair next door, and you have a delicious
romantic farce that deftly slides into and out of something quite a
bit darker.
