From the Back Cover
Six months in America should give Dr. Amanda Potter a chance to re-evaluate her life. In London her marriage of twenty-two years is unraveling, and her hospital superior is trying to sabotage her career.
But danger awaits her in America as well. The director of her OB/GYN department is actively biased against women of abundant proportions. Alas, Amanda is packaged in a petite but Rubenesque body with a personality more forthright than tactful.
And then there's the recently-divorced Jack Hunter, complete with melancholy blue eyes. He offers Amanda a challenge--and forces her to take a hard look at her own perceptions of weight, sex and fidelity.
