Pretending
Cuan - twentysomething but an eternal adolescent - enchants everyone he meets. So he has Martina, nearly a decade older, distracted with longing, and his first love, Eleanor, haunted by questions. Oddly, despite his powers of attraction, Cuan connects with no one.However, everything changes when Cuan's seven-year-old daughter comes back into his life and he realizes that it's time to grow up and to face up to who he really is and where love fits into his life.As Martina, Eleanor and Cuan try to figure out the meaning of love, commitment and family - how to live in families and how to grow up despite them - they stagger towards maturity and alternative new families of their own.Pretending is a tender and addictive story of love, desire, secrets, confused identities and learning to be who you really are - not what you pretend to be.
