A husband can be good for a number of things:

  • Companionship (when he's home)
  • Household repairs (if he's handy)
  • Good loving (if you're lucky), but . . . no girl needs a husband seven days a week!
  • Marie needs her "stay-at-home husband" to clean the house and babysit the kids, so she can take care of business coast-to-coast . . . and enjoy some harmless flirting on the side.

    Mai's perfectly content to be the perfect wife to a successful corporate superstar—throwing lavish parties and organizing gala charity fundraisers. But it's funny how quickly everything can change with just a single phone call . . . from prison!

    And high-powered ad exec Kennedy believes the best husband is no husband at all. Hot encounters with a succession of studs keep her going strong as she climbs to the top of her profession.

    A spouse is fine as long as he doesn't screw up the rest of your life. Now three lovely ladies who think they have this "husband" thing all worked out are about to learn that, when it comes to love and marriage, "perfection" can always be improved upon. And it's going to be one wild ride!

        Three formersorority sistersmaintain their friendship throughoutpersonal triumphs and disasters. Commitment-phobic Kennedy is caringforher father, who issinking more deeplyinto the hell of Alzheimers every day. Perfect trophy-wife Mai is shocked to find out her husband has terriblesecrets. Marie says she loves her family, but her career has taken precedence. Although she flirts and dates during her travels, Marie never imagines that her solid-as-a-rock, stay-at-home husband is fighting his desire for another.As their worlds transform, the only constant forMai, Marie, and Kennedy is their friendship. The cover art would indicate otherwise, but this is a serious book about the changing roles of African American women in todays society. Foxx has crafted believable, three-dimensional characters, and each of the three story lines standsas an emotional tale of modern life. Readers who enjoy friendship-themed novels, such as Circle of Friends (1991), Waiting to Exhale (1992), and The Dirty Girls Social Club (2003), will find this well-written book most fulfilling.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2007, American Library Association.)
