Book description
Cassie settled down too young, marrying her first serious boyfriend.
Now, ten years later, she is betrayed and broken. With her marriage in
tatters and no career or home of her own, she needs to work out where
she belongs in the world and who she really is.
So begins a year-long trial as Cassie leaves her sheltered life in
rural Scotland to stay with each of her best friends in the most
glamorous cities in the world: New York, Paris and London. Exchanging
grouse moor and mousy hair for low-carb diets and high-end highlights,
Cassie tries on each city for size as she attempts to track down the
life she was supposed to have been leading, and with it, the man who was
supposed to love her all along. Karen Swan began her career in fashion
journalism before giving it all up to raise her three children and an
ADHD puppy, and to pursue her ambition of becoming a writer. She lives
in the forest in Sussex, writing her books in a treehouse overlooking
the Downs. Her first novel, Players
, was published in 2010, followed by Prima Donna
in 2011.
