They say trouble always comes in threes . . .
For sisters Lyn, Cat and Gemma Kettle, the year they turn thirty-three is no exception.
Sensible Lyn is struggling to balance being a mother, wife and businesswoman without losing her mind.
Cat, whose perfect marriage is the envy of all her friends, never suspected that her husband had been hiding a secret that will tear her life apart.
Directionless Gemma, who changes jobs and boyfriends every few months, has just met a new man who could be the one to unlock her hidden past.
The bonds of these sisters are strong enough to withstand whatever life throws at them.
That is until the night of their thirty-fourth birthday dinner, when home truths are revealed and things are said that can't be taken back . . .

Yep. Nice looking. Although I did have a preference for but I'm getting ahead of myself.
So, at first these three girls were obviously having a great time roaring with laughter, getting louder and louder. Each time they laughed, my date and I smiled sadly at each other.
About eleven o'clock we cheered up because the end was in sight. We got the dessert menu and she used sign language to suggest we share the blueberry cheesecake. Obviously I didn't completely ruin her night by mentioning my missing sweet tooth. What is it with women and sharing desserts? It makes them so happy.
