Wonderfully wise Santa Montefiore will capture your heart
with this "bittersweet and thought-provoking"* novel about
a modern wife who must ask herself, Would I risk
everything for love? A wife who has forgotten her own
beauty and allure. A distant, distracted husband. A smart,
candlelit dinner party, witty conversation, and a
charmingly rugged vineyard owner from South Africa. So
begins Santa Montefiore’s powerful and poignant new novel
in which a woman who finds herself in a common predicament
must confront the most unlikely aspects of herself. "I
hope you don’t mind my writing to you," begins the first e-
mail bestselling children’s book author Angelica receives
from Jack. Surely it can’t do any harm to indulge in a
mild flirtation. After all, she wouldn’t risk her stable
marriage and the happiness of her treasured children. But
things don’t stop at an e-mail, and when Angelica goes to
Cape Town for a book tour, her affair with Jack begins in
earnest. On their last day together, he makes a stunning
confession, and now everything Angelica thought she knew
about love and passion, safety and experience, right and
wrong are entirely upended once again. A tender book about
the true meaning of love and happily ever after, The
Perfect Happiness is for any woman who has ever looked up
from her steady, secure life and secretly wondered "what
if . . ."
