From the acclaimed author of Waiting to Surface comes a page-turning novel about four college friends whose reunion reawakens old desires and grudgeswith fatal results.What happens when you think you know the person you loveand youre dead wrong? Thirty-nine-year-old Lisa Barkley looks over at her sleeping husband, Sam, and cant help but feel that their fifteen-year marriage is in a funk that she isnt able to place. She tells herself that the strain must be due to their mounting financial pressures. With two daughters about to start another year at an elite Upper East Side private school and her own career hitting a wall, the effort of trying to stay afloat in their privileged world is increasingly difficult. But when she listens to Sams voicemail and hears a whispered phone call from a woman he is to meet that night, she begins to suspect he is having an affair. Lisas best friend, Deirdre, claims it cant be true. But how can Lisa fully trust her opinion when Deirdre is mired in her own obsessive affair? When Deirdres former college flame, Jack, comes to town and the two couples meet to celebrate his fortieth birthday, the stage is set for an explosive series of discoveries with devastating results. Filled with suspense and provocative questions about the relationships we value most, Best Intentions is a tightly woven drama of love, friendship and betrayal.
