Amanda Keeler is a bestselling novelist, famed for her martini-soaked parties. It’s a glamorous life, paid for in full by marriage to a tedious, teeth-grinding newspaper tycoon.
When a meek friend from her provincial past arrives in Manhattan, Amanda plots to use her as cover for an affair-until she realises that they have both fallen for the same man.
Sophisticated, scandalous and acidly funny, this is a portrait of a woman determined to have everything, even if it costs the one thing she never meant to gamble: her heart.
