It wasn’t supposed to happen this way. When Eliza Hunt created The Hudson Valley Ladies’ Bulletin Board fifteen years ago she was happily entrenched in her picture-perfect suburban life with her husband and twin preschoolers. Now, with an empty nest and a crippling case of agoraphobia, the once-fun hobby has become her lifeline. So when a rival parenting forum threatens the site’s existence, she doesn’t think twice before fabricating a salacious rumor to spark things up a bit.
It doesn’t take long before that spark becomes a flame.
Across town, new mom and site devotee Olivia York is thrown into a tailspin by what she reads on the Bulletin Board. Allison Le is making cyber friends with a woman who isn’t quite who she says she is. And Amanda Cole, Eliza’s childhood friend, may just hold the key to unearthing why Eliza can’t step out of her front door.
In all this chaos, one thing is for sure…Hudson Valley will never be the same.
Funny, romantic, raw, and hopeful, this is a story about being a woman and of the healing power of sisterhood.

Rosen's follow-up to the charming Nine Women, One Dress (2016) uncovers secrets in the suburbs. Eliza created a popular online chat board for local moms 15 years ago but discovers a new group is attracting younger, hipper moms. To spice things up and regain her group's status, she creates an anonymous post claiming to be from a woman having an affair. It gains a huge response but backfires when more than one woman suspects she's the one being cheated on. Eliza has secrets of her own: she's developed a sudden case of agoraphobia and hasn't left her house in months. Her best friend returns home after her Hollywood producer husband is accused of multiple sexual assaults, and together the women try to untangle the messes they've found themselves in. Back on the chat board, newcomer Alison thinks she's making a new mommy friend, then gets a pretty big surprise when she discovers her new date has secrets of his own. This fresh and funny book balances an array of tough topics with humor and a cast of relatable characters.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2020, American Library Association.)
