Grace Reinhart Sachs is living the only life she ever wanted for herself, devoted to her husband, a pediatric oncologist at a major cancer hospital, their young son, Henry, and the patients she sees in her therapy practice. Grace is also the author of the forthcoming "You Should Have Known," a book in which she castigates women for not valuing their intuition and calls upon them to pay attention to their first impressions of men.
