Second honeymoon. Joanna Trollope. 2007.

Ben is at last, leaving home. At twenty-two, he’s the youngest of the family. His mother, Edie, an actress, is distraught. His father, Russell, a theatrical agent, is rather hoping to get his wife back, after decades of family life. His brother, Matthew, is struggling in a relationship in which he achieves and earns less than his girlfriend. His sister, Rosa, is wrestling with debt and the end of a turbulent love affair. 

Meet the Boyd family and the empty nest, twenty-first century style.
