Produktbeschreibung

'Sparkles with all the wit, charm, and drama of the best 90's rom-coms' - Torrey Peters 'Irresistibly fresh, bright, funny...the kind of romance I've been waiting for' - Casey McQuiston Julia loves her family. They stood by her when she came out as a woman and have been nothing but supportive of her life in New York. So when her brother asks her to be 'best woman' in his wedding, how could she say no? Now though, Julia's facing a week in her hometown dealing with bridezilla and her cronies, her parents' messy post-divorce relationship, and a mountain of old memories she's done her best to avoid. She's totally fine. That is, until Julia learns that Kim Cameron - gorgeous, self-assured, and the object of Julia's unrequited high school crush - is maid of honour. Thinking no harm will come of it, Julia tells a tiny little lie to win Kim over. But the lie quickly snowballs, jeopardizing both their blossoming attraction and Julia's relationship with her family. As Julia struggles through the wedding week and tensions begin to boil over, can the best woman fix her worst mistake? *** Readers cannot get enough of Best Woman! *** 'Smart, sexy, and endlessly entertaining' - Kristen Arnett 'Takes the wedding cake as my favourite debut of the year' - JP Brammer 'Easily one of those books that you accidentally read in one sitting because you just couldn't put it down' - E! Online 'I've struggled to find romcoms with trans characters written by trans people previously, and Best Woman really hits that spot.' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ 'Funny, sharp, uncompromising and clever. I enjoyed the ambiguity of the characters and the refusal to sanitise their flaws. This is romance, but grimy, and I'm here for it.' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ 'If you are looking for a laugh out-loud funny book with touching, and heartbreaking story, you found it!' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ 'A delightful, funny novel and a masterclass in storytelling, brimming with wit and charm' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿
