Two childhood best friends wake up the morning after their twentieth high school reunion to discover that theyβve switched bodies in this hilarious and heartwarming debut by two childhood best friends. With βa delicious, page-turning premise, and sweet and surprising insightsβ (New York Times bestselling author Jen Lancaster), Your Perfect Life perfectly illustrates that old adage: Sometimes, you have to walk a mile in someone elseβs shoes to see whatβs in her heart. Best friends since childhood, Casey and Rachel couldnβt lead more different lives. While workaholic Casey rubs elbows with celebrities daily as the host of Gossip TV and comes home nightly to an empty apartment, stay-at-home mom Rachel juggles an βoopsβ baby, two fiery teenagers, and a husband who barely seems the man she fell in love with two decades before. After an argument at their twentieth high school reunion, Casey and Rachel throw back shots to get the night back on track. Instead, they get a life-changing hangover. Waking up in each otherβs bodies the next morning, they must figure out how to navigate their altered realities. Rachel is forced to face the broadcasting dreams she gave up when she got pregnant in college, and Casey finally steps out of the spotlight to face the real reason why sheβs alone. And they soon discover that they donβt know themselvesβor their best friendβnearly as well as they thought they did. Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke bring their βwitty, winning styleβ (Sarah Pekkanen, author of The Best of Us) to every page of this novel that is sure to please fans of In Her Shoes and The Opposite of Me. Your Perfect Life is a story of humor and heart about two best friends, what they didnβt know about each other, and how, by switching lives, each learns to appreciate her own.
