Book excerpt: Julia Riley thinks she's happy. The executive director of Boston's Fledger Foundation, she and her wife, Carrie, are raising three children, one from Julia's first marriage...but being content is not the same as being happy. Katie Brennan is the popular host of a network television morning show. She has two children and a husband who plays major-league baseball. Rumors of her husband's infidelity are troubling, but she knows how often the media reports innuendo and half-truths instead of facts. When the two women collaborate on a fundraising program for a new diversity center, they immediately strike up a friendship, one that only grows stronger when Katie discovers her husband has indeed been unfaithful. As Katie's marriage fails, she realizes she is intensely attracted to her friend. Surprised by her own feelings, Katie distances herself from Julia, straining their relationship. For her part, Julia needs time to heal the wounds of her marriage. She's not sure Katie will accept a romantic relationship, however, a doubt that gives her pause. Before either woman can move on, they need to find and accept themselves. Love might feel like falling through shooting stars, but sometimes it takes time for the stars to fall.
