Juliet never planned to be the other woman, but Rory was the only man she'd ever loved. She was sure that he would leave his annoyingly perfect wife for her, then he went and died. At his funeral, Juliet is forced to hide shamefully at the back, while his wife and their son rightfully grieve up front. Maeve, a celebrated novelist, appears to have it all, except any time for herself. Between her passive aggressive husband, two teenage sons and ailing mother, Maeve's success feels hollow. When she dallies in a little infidelity of her own, and then uncovers a disturbing secret, her carefully constructed life begins to unravel. Erica was the perfect wife, but Rory knew things about her that no one else can ever know. And now she's left with a question she doesn't want the answer to: had she lost Rory long before he died? In the wake of his death, she forms an unlikely connection with the last person she expected, Juliet, his gorgeous high school girlfriend. As three women's lives collide, they must reconcile the realities of love, betrayal and the limits of forgiveness, because what does it truly mean to be 'good', anyway?
