Isolde Brilliant used to have a life she recognized. She was working in finance, she had a devoted, if neurotic, husband, and a perfectly acceptable apartment in downtown Manhattan. But once Izzy's wish to become a mother finally comes true, she is laid off from her job, and her old world falls by the wayside. Although she's surprised with motherhood's hidden pleasures--jaunts to the park, bickering with other mothers, and the sense of accomplishment she feels in having made it through her son's first year--her marriage is on shaky ground and she feels lost. She just can't get a grip on what to do now that she has all--or most--of the things she's ever wanted. As Izzy tries to decide her next move, her best friend announces that she is leaving her husband. Balancing the demands of marriage and motherhood for seven years have made her feel like a nag, a shrew, a ...you-know-what, and she's determined that the only way out is to separate. Izzy tries to avoid a similar fate. But as new challenges and temptations arise, Izzy begins to wonder if there might be some inescapable grain of truth in her friend's outlandish theory. Full of the poignancy and hilarity that readers have come to expect from Jennifer Belle, The Seven Year Bitch is a smart and provocative novel about learning how to love what you have, and finding out that it's both the hardest thing you've ever done and not so hard after all.
