Suddenly in their sixties, the Men have reached acritical juncture — in their emotional lives, in their careers… and in their loving relationships with the Girls, who are half their age. Popular British TV personality Hugh Hunter has begun feeling resentful toward his much younger, seemingly perfect wife, Julia. For while his own star is on the wane,Julia’s is rapidly ascending. James Mallow, a teacher,has shared eight blissful years with Kate Bain, his junior by a good quarter century. But his devoted longtime partner appears restless these days. Then a freak rush hour accident knocks a fiercely independent spinster from her bicycle — an event that will have a profound and wildly unanticipated impact on two unorthodox unions.
