A Better Man

Mehr zum Buch

Nick and Maya feel like they are falling back in love--but what if Maya knew that it was Nick's desire for a divorce that prompted his sudden change of behavior? Maya wants Nick to be less of a workaholic, to come home earlier, to spend some time with his children. Nick wants a divorce. With his mind made up, Nick is determined to leave quickly and with dignity, but it comes as an unpleasant shock to realize how much it will cost him to walk away. As a stay-at-home mom, Maya is entitled to everything. Nick is resolute, so when an unlikely solution presents itself he gives it everything he's got. If Nick becomes a better husband and father, if he encourages his wife to rediscover herself, the more self-sufficient Maya will become: and the cheaper Nick's pay-out. But as Nick pretends to be a better man he becomes one. He remembers his connection with Maya, their ability to be a couple and not just parents who share a house. Everything seems to be back on track--until Maya finds out exactly what Nick has been planning.
