Description:

***The New York Times* bestselling author of *The Other Woman* returns with a wry tale of two women who discover the grass is not always greener on the other side of the Atlantic** Vicky Townsley is single, solvent, and seriously successful. Features director of the hugely successful *Poise!* magazine, she has an amazing flat, good friends, a fantastic wardrobe . . . in short, everything�except the life she wants: marriage, children, and a house in the country. On the other side of the Atlantic, Amber Winslow has a stone mansion in Connecticut, two kids (and a full-time nanny), the requisite golden retriever, and a busy charitable commitment for the local Women�s League. But she hasn�t quite found the fulfillment she had expected from being a wife and mother. When she spots an intriguing contest in *Poise!*, Amber never expects to be picked. *Life Swap* is a riotous and poignant look at what happens when two women, both of whom think their bliss lies elsewhere, walk in each other�s shoes for a month only to discover that happiness is closer than they�d ever thought. A rich, clever, and sharply observed chronicle of the true lives of women, *Life Swap* is a must read for the modern mademoiselle that will again squarely position Jane Green in a preeminent place in women�s fiction.
