Oh, and a troubling fifth thing: He's a diehard Pittsburgh Steelers fan, and well...Liz would bleed purple if she had to, cheering for her Baltimore Ravens. How's that for clashing loyalties?
Yet when Liz's idyllic Chesapeake life takes a plunge, she needs Paul's friendship more than any fantasy. Liz must manage two children and one conniving, estranged husband.

Will Liz ever relax again when she knows she's being fleeced, but can't prove it? And why would Paul want her tales of woes with his newly found pleasure literally chasing tail? Make that plural.
