Take It from Me

Wendy Moore hides her collection of pilfered bric-a-brac from everyone, including her husband. He thinks she licked her kleptomania in therapy more than a decade ago. Therapy did help, as did focusing her attention on motherhood. But now Wendy's gardening and furniture-refinishing hobbies fill up only so much of the day, leaving the recent empty nester lonely and anxious -- a combination likely to trigger her little problem. She needs a project, fast. Luckily, Harper Ross -- a single, childless younger woman in desperate need of highlights -- just moved in next door.
