- A novel of second love between Americans abroad—&“a monumental achievement&” from the New York Times–bestselling author of The Women&’s Room (Cosmopolitan). Dolores Durer, a divorced English professor and the mother of two adult children, has sworn off love after a series of disastrous affairs. Electronics executive Victor Morrissey is in England to open a branch office. He has four children and is unhappily married. From the moment they meet—on a train—their connection is instant and passionate. The two Americans abroad embark on an affair that will have consequences in both their lives. Each carries baggage.
