Join four friends on a hilarious self-help journey to find out how far some people will go to achieve happiness in their marriages. Candace, Miriam, Lucy and Jenna would be in Sex and the City except they are already married and have young children. When they are discussing sex (often interrupted by a dog or a child) love (of marital and friendship variety) and chores (which no one wants to do), they decide to embark on a series of experiments to housetrain their husbands to do it all for them. From sleep habits, to chores, to sharing the mental load, these best friends experience the small dissatisfactions with mundane life that we all do. The consequences of these experiments are both hilarious and not what anyone has planned. Between a dog garbage party, an unexpected pregnancy, and a Dish War, they discover their friendship is the technique that they truly needed. Women nostalgic for their best friends will find a laugh and a cry between the pages of this sweet, often raunchy novel.
