Can't Wait - by Carol Weiss Rosenberg (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The ad in the local paper read, "If nothing else has worked, what have you got to lose? Only those unwanted pounds. Hypnosis is safe and painless, and it gets results. Gain poise and confidence. You can change your life!" Two of the women who answered the ad were neighbors who hardly knew each other before the slim, elegant French-Canadian hypnotist with a beguiling foreign accent came to town, but they bonded over a shared desperation to lose the weight that had plagued them forever. For Andrea, hypnosis was a last-ditch effort to save her marriage. For Sally, it seemed like a way to finally lead a healthier life and get some respect. Mme. LaMince promised to make things better, and she did - at first. But unexpected consequences threatened to destroy a friendship, a marriage, and even a life. Can't Wait is a captivating story of friendship, love, heartache, and mystery.
