Two Loves — Sian James

In Two Loves by Sian James, Rosamund Gilchrist is restless. She has lived her life so far in supporting roles: widowed third wife of the much older Anthony, a famous poet; mother of the enchanting Joss; daughter of eccentric divorced parents, and mistress of her neighbor, Thomas. But now that her comfortable, long-term affair has come to an end, she has to face facts--if she is ever to become more than a half-hearted painter, ever to have a man of her own or another child, she has to venture out of her sanctuary at home and tackle life head on.
