Happy Birthday (Steel D.); Random House UK, 2012

Time to blow out the candles, say goodbye to the past, and make a wish for the future!

For April Wyatt, turning thirty is not what she had expected. She’s single, with no interest in changing that. Her successful restaurant in downtown New York consumes every ounce of her passion and energy. Ready or not, though, April’s life is about to change, in a tumultuous discovery on the morning of her milestone birthday.

April’s mother Valerie is a popular TV personality. Since her divorce, she has worked tirelessly to reach the pinnacle of her career. But she’s having trouble equating her age with how she feels, and all the hours with personal trainers, top hairdressers and plastic surgeons can’t hide the fact that she is turning sixty – and the whole world discovers it on her birthday.

It is also Jack Adams’ birthday – the most charismatic sports announcer and hall-of-fame football star on TV, a man who has his pick of desirable younger women. But he fears his age may finally be catching up with him when he wakes up on his fiftieth birthday needing an emergency visit to the chiropractor…

As these three very different people celebrate their birthdays, they discover that life itself is a celebration – and that its greatest gifts are always a surprise…
