Title: Wait for the rain
Description: Daphne White is staring down the barrel of forty and is distraught at what she sees. Her ex-husband is getting remarried, her teenage daughter hardly needs her anymore, and the career she once dreamed about has somehow slipped from her grasp. She's almost lost sight of the spirited and optimistic young woman she used to be. As she heads off to a Caribbean island to mark the new decade with her best friends from college, Daphne's in anything but the mood to celebrate. But when she meets Clay Hanson, a much younger man, she ignores her inner voice warning her that she's too old for a fling. In fact, this tropical getaway might be the perfect opportunity to picture her future in a new sun-drenched light. With the help of her friends, Daphne rediscovers her enthusiasm for life, as well as her love for herself and realizes that her best years are still ahead.
