They were the best of friends and the most daunting of bachelors....Charlie Harrington, a handsome philanthropist, has such high expectations for his perfect bride that no mortal need apply....Adam Weiss, a forty-something celebrity lawyer, prefers his women very young, very voluptuous, and very short-term.And for Gray Hawk, a gifted artist with a knack for attracting troubled relationships, women are fine; its just the idea of family he cant imagine (particularly the family of the woman hes dating).

Now the three friends, spending their annual summer vacation cruising the Mediterranean aboard Charlies majestic yacht, are about to have their bachelorhood rocked. By autumn all three will fall precipitously into relationships they never saw coming. Charlie begins dating a crusading social worker who couldnt be further from his idealuntil he makes a stunning discovery about her.

As another holiday on the yacht approaches, and with it a turning point in each mans life, the three bachelors are forced to face the things that scare them most: their phobias about relationships, the wounds of the pastand the kind of women who challenge their deepest terrors. What happens next will spark big changes for Charlie, Adam, and Grayand might just put an end to their carousing days forever. For as the once-carefree trio is about to discover, love is the most unpredictable adventure of all.
