Fiction
EAT, SURF, LOVE. A butterfly flaps its wings in New York
City . . . and a groundswell forms in Mexico. . . . Sometimes the biggest ripples come from the smallest events.
Like the day that Emma Guthrie walks into world-famous movie
star Garrett Walker’s trailer. When she steps through the
door, she’s a novice PA who’s just dropped out of college
after losing her scholarship. When she walks out, she’s on
her way to becoming Mrs. Emma Walker—wife of an A-list
actor. Soon, Emma has made the transition from nobody to
red-carpet royalty, trading jeans and flip-flops for closets
full of Chanel and Birkin bags, swishing past velvet ropes
to attend every lavish party and charity gala on both
coasts. With her husband’s encouragement, Emma pens a
screenplay based on her life, Fame Tax, which becomes a
blockbuster sensation. Through it all, Garrett is her ally
and her mentor . . . until their relationship is thrown into
question by an incriminating text message that Emma
discovers on Garrett’s phone the night of the Met Costume
Institute Gala. Devastated by her husband’s infidelity and hounded
mercilessly by the paparazzi, Emma must flee New York City
to get away from it all and clear her head. Her destination?
A sleepy coastal town in Mexico where no one recognizes her
and there is nothing but unspoiled beaches for miles. Here,
she meets Ben, a gorgeous, California-born surf instructor,
who teaches her about the healing powers of surfing, shows
her the joys of the simple life, and ultimately opens her up
to the possibility of love. From Manhattan’s hippest restaurants to the
yacht-and-celebrity infested waters of St. Barts, Katie
Lee’s debut novel is an irresistible insider’s glimpse into
a glittering world—and a captivating story about how losing
everything you thought you wanted can be the first step to
finding what you need.
