Running in Heels
Published by HarperCollins
A “charming, intelligent, and often hilarious” tale of twentysomething angst and female friendship (The Washington Post Book World).
Babs is getting married. And Natalie Miller, twenty-seven, senior press officer for the London Ballet, panics. What happens when your best friend pledges everlasting love to someone else?
Nat is dating a guy named Saul Bowcock. But as the confetti flutters, her good-girl veneer cracks, and she falls into an alluringly unsuitable affair that spins her crazily out of control. Nat is on the rebound and allergic to the truth—about Babs’s relationship, her boyfriend’s ambition, her parents’ divorce, and her golden-boy brother’s little Australian secret. Her mother’s lasagna and her roommate Andy’s fuzzy slippers are also monstrous affronts. But what Nat really needs to face is the mirror—and herself. . . .
Wickedly witty and refreshingly honest, Running in Heels is a look at the lies we tell ourselves—and the unwanted truths that only our best friends can tell us.
“Hilariously and touchingly told . . . balances the humor and the seriousness of Natalie’s problems perfectly.” —Booklist
“Populated with a cast of entertaining characters.” —Entertainment Weekly
“Strong on humor, heartache, and snappy dialogue.” —Boston Sunday Herald
