It's what happens to her mom when she has affairs with married men.

She's in love with handsome lifeguard Keith McKnight, but he already has a girlfriend. When Keith offers to teach Steffie how to swim, she finds herself in his arms and fighting the symptoms of love lunacy. But with the help of her feisty, older friend Alice, she's determined not to drown in her mother's problems.Still, Steffie is about to discover that swimming against the current isn't so easy.From the Trade Paperback edition.
