New York Times bestselling author Lauren Weisberger returns with a novel starring one of her favorite characters from The Devil Wears PradaâEmily Charlton, first assistant to Miranda Priestly, now a highly successful image consultant whoâs just landed the client of a lifetime.
Welcome to Greenwich, CT, where the lawns and the women are perfectly manicured, the Titoâs and sodas are extra strong, and everyone has something to say about the infamous new neighbor.
Letâs be clear: Emily Charlton, Miranda Priestlyâs ex-assistant, does not do the suburbs. Sheâs working in Hollywood as an image consultant to the stars, but recently, Emilyâs lost a few clients. Sheâs hopeless with social media. The new guard is nipping at her heels. She needs a big opportunity, and she needs it now.
Karolina Hartwell is as A-list as they come. Sheâs the former face of LâOreal, a mega-supermodel recognized the world over, and now, the gorgeous wife of the newly elected senator from New York, Graham, who also has his eye on the presidency. Itâs all very Kennedy-esque, right down to the public philandering and Karolinaâs arrest for a DUIâwith a Suburban full of other peopleâs children.
Miriam is the link between them. Until recently, she was a partner at one of Manhattanâs most prestigious law firms. But when Miriam moves to Greenwich and takes time off to spend with her children, she never could have predicted that being a stay-at-home mom in an uber-wealthy town could have more pitfalls than a stressful legal career.
Emily, Karolina, and Miriam make an unlikely trio, but they desperately need each other. Together, theyâll navigate the social landmines of life in Americaâs favorite suburb on steroids, revealing the truthsâand the liesâthat simmer just below the glittering surface. With her signature biting style, Lauren Weisberger offers a dazzling look into another sexy, over-the-top world, where nothing is as it appears.
Marnie MacGraw wants an ordinary lifeâa husband, kids, and a minivan in the suburbs. Now that sheâs marrying the man of her dreams, sheâs sure this is the life sheâll get. Then Marnie meets Blix Holliday, her fiancĂ©âs irascible matchmaking great-aunt whoâs dying, and everything changesâjust as Blix told her it would.
When her marriage ends after two miserable weeks, Marnie is understandably shocked. Sheâs even more astonished to find that sheâs inherited Blixâs Brooklyn brownstone along with all of Blixâs unfinished âprojectsâ: the heartbroken, oddball friends and neighbors running from happiness. Marnie doesnât believe sheâs anything special, but Blix somehow knew she was the perfect person to follow in her matchmaker footsteps.
And Blix was also right about some things Marnie must learn the hard way: love is hard to recognize, and the ones who push love away often are the ones who need it most.

Faced with doubts (what if heâs a creep in real lifeâor worse?), Bailey doesnât tell Alex sheâs moved to his hometown. Or that sheâs landed a job at the local tourist-trap museum.
