For Dori Gray, a second chance at motherhood comes at a high price

Dori Gray - married, then divorced, age forty, professional journalist - had given up hope of a child. A botched abortion left her functionally infertile, and after a string of bad relationships, Dori's prospects have seemingly dwindled to naught. Then comes the astonishing revelation that she is pregnant - by her married ex-lover.

Dori's options are limited. Fearful that her doctor will decline to oversee an illegitimate birth, or that she'll be forced into a hermitlike existence until the child is born, Dori confides in her married best friend, Celia Duke. Surprised by Celia's confidence and support, Dori decides to confront her predicament head-on.
