Who is the other woman? That’s for you to decide.

Ann devoted years to her mother’s care. Now, in a bid to escape the emptiness of her old flat and the paperwork caused by her death, Ann finds herself in a bar upstate. She has been so good for so long, she deserves a little fun.

Justin is also grieving but his wife is still alive. She has been dying for a long time and they say she doesn’t have long left. He deserves a little fun, too.

Justin asks Ann to move in just a few weeks later. A million miles away from her lonely life in New York, here Ann finds a world where she is wanted and needed by both Justin and his little girl, Sophie.

But just as Ann finds that she is pregnant, Justin receives news. Unexpectedly, his wife’s drug trial has been a success. Deborah is coming home.

Ann doesn’t quite know what to do. The best news is the very worst news. And who is really the other woman in this situation? All she knows is that she finally likes her life and she plans to keep it.
