Lisa is forty-two, divorced and a mum of three. For the past year, she has been going out with Mark, who is five years younger than her. Lisa really likes him but she worries that one day he will leave - just like her ex-husband did. One top of everything else, Lisa feels really tired and moody, and has put on weight. She thinks it's the menopause - but could there be another reason for how she's feeling?

Lisa's life is about to change in a big way but does she want Mark by her side? Does he even want to be there?

With the help of her family and friends, Lisa starts to believe that a second chance of love and happiness might just be possible...

Adele has spent her adult life in Italy, Botswana and London until 2005 when she moved to Guildford, where she now lives with her husband and son.
