Summary:

"The long anticipated second novel from the bestselling author of Be Frank With Me, set in 1930s Reno, in which two very different women seeking divorces meet and form an unlikely friendship that is complicated by the handsome young ranch hand who befriends both--and who finds his life unexpectedly upturned by one"-- Provided by publisher.

1938. Women seeking a quick, no-questions split from their husbands head to the 'divorce capital of the world,' Reno, Nevada. The catch: they have to wait six weeks to become 'residents.' At the Flying Leap, a dude ranch that caters to their every need, Ward earns an honest living as a ranch hand. Two new guests are about to upend everything he thinks he knows: Nina, a St Louis heiress and amateur pilot back for her third divorce, and Emily, whose bravest moment in life was leaving her cheating husband back in San Francisco and driving herself to Reno. -- adapted from jacket
