Summary: Sometimes all you can do is fly away home . . .  
When Sylvie Serfer met Richard Woodruff in law school, she had  wild curls, wide hips, and lots of opinions. Decades later, Sylvie has  remade herself as the ideal politician's wife—her hair dyed and  straightened, her hippie-chick wardrobe replaced by tailored knit suits.  At fifty-seven, she ruefully acknowledges that her job is staying  twenty pounds thinner than she was in her twenties and tending to her  husband, the senator.  
Lizzie, the Woodruffs' younger daughter, is at twenty-four a  recovering addict, whose mantra HALT (Hungry? Angry? Lonely? Tired?)  helps her keep her life under control. Still, trouble always seems to  find her. Her older sister, Diana, an emergency room physician, has  everything Lizzie failed to achieve—a husband, a young son, the perfect  home—and yet she's trapped in a loveless marriage. With temptation  waiting in one of the ER's exam rooms, she finds herself craving more.  
After Richard's extramarital affair makes headlines, the three  women are drawn into the painful glare of the national spotlight. Once  the press conference is over, each is forced to reconsider her life, who  she is and who she is meant to be.  
Written with an irresistible blend of heartbreak and hilarity,  Fly Away Home is  an unforgettable story of a mother and two daughters who after a  lifetime of distance finally learn to find refuge in one another. -- Washington Square Press

FLY AWAY HOME would also make a fantastic book club selection, so keep it in mind for a spring or summer pick.
