When singing sensation Tanya Thomas's third marriage falls apart, she decides to invite her two best friends from college to join her for a vacation. Tanya's friends, each suffering through crises of her own, eagerly accept her offer, not knowing that the other will be coming. Mary Stuart Walker, a polished New York lawyer's wife, and Zoe Phillips, a dedicated San Francisco AIDS doctor, suffered a falling out in college and haven't spoken since. Put these three women on a Wyoming dude ranch with handsome wranglers and intellectual widowers, and you can guess what develops. Within two weeks, the women rekindle their friendship, fall in love, and plan their futures. Steel fans will love the happy ending.

In typical Steel fashion, she weaves an intricate story about three college girlfriends, 20 years after graduation. Very touching.

This is a rather unpredictable romance tale-not the usual cutsie love story. I picked this book up because I am rather soft on cowboys and there was a horse on the cover (I know-disgusting!) But I am trying to be truthful. The novel ended up being about three college roommates who meet up twenty years later and decide to have one last fling on a dude ranch. So, there are a few horses and some cowboys in this story. But the story is about the friendship between three extraordinary women; a rock star, a doctor and wealthy lawyer's wife and the healing that comes about as they share a special vacation together. A good read. I recommend this to anyone that wants to escape from reality for awhile.

Three college roommates meet in Wyoming to spend some time together. One is a movie star fleeing a divorce, one has AIDS, the other is fleeing a loveless marriage after her child's suicide. I liked it even though it was predictiable.
