Vacation

In this witty, deeply honest tale of married life, New York Times bestselling author Jane Green delves into the heart of the holidays-and the winter of one woman's discontent . . .ÿJust when she'd sworn off men for good, Sarah Evans met Eddie.

Sarah was a magazine editor, living in Manhattan, and loving her life-except for the heartbreaks.

A successful real estate developer, Eddie was a breath of fresh air, a meeting of minds-and bodies.

Soon came wedded bliss, baby number one-and the proverbial move to the suburbs . . .ÿYou just sit there like a slob while I do all the work.

Nine years later, this is increasingly what goes through Sarah's mind when she looks at Evan, propped in front of the TV with a beer, ignoring their two children.

The truth is, she misses her old life. She misses the old Eddie. She can't help wondering if she'd be happier alone . . . ÿWhen Eddie's job sends him to Chicago indefinitely, Sarah shocks him by suggesting a trial separation.

But she knows it's just a precursor to divorce-even if Eddie chooses to think of it as a "vacation." Yet a lot can change-on both sides-as time goes by. And once Christmas arrives, Sarah and Eddie might re-discover gifts they'd forgotten they had . . .
