Two couples have been friends for many years. Jake and Claire, and Rob and Kaye. They are now living a few doors from one another. Jake and Kaye had been at college twenty years ago and were firm friends. Now all of a sudden he's making it clear that he feels more than friendship. Before you know it he and Kaye are having sex, a lot. Rob finds out but seems to think it's some sort of competition between him and Jake for Kaye's affections. When Kaye falls pregnant by Jake, Rob still continues to be supportive. He knows it can't be his baby as he's had a vasectomy.This story had a lot of flaws IMO. Where was Jake's wife Claire when his affair with Kaye came to light. It's almost as though she's been erased from the story. I didn't connect with any of the characters they were all very self serving. The writing was rather stilted and wooden as well, and considering the subject matter it was far too long and would have been better as a novella as there's not enough substance to the plot. I see that there's a follow up book, I don't see the point dragging this story out over two books.
