      Following her national bestsellers, British author Jane Green presents a sparkling story of old friends reunited and old jealousies reignited. Best friends Catherine Warner and Simon Nelson are total opposites, both unlucky in love. Cath, messy and scatterbrained, has closed herself off emotionally after a heartbreak, while Si is tidy, sharp-tongued, and eager for romance. They live in London’s West Hampstead with their lifelong friends, Josh and Lucy, who are navigating parenthood with their challenging child and a formidable Swedish nanny, Ingrid. Their lives take a turn when Portia, a stunning college friend known for breaking hearts, unexpectedly reappears. While the four friends welcome her back, they question her motives. Portia’s return sparks a series of events that tests their friendships and leaves them wondering about their futures. Meanwhile, Cath pursues her dream of opening a bookstore after leaving her advertising job, and she finds herself drawn to James, a charming real-estate agent who frequents her new venture. With Green’s trademark wit, this tale delves into the complexities of friendship, love, ambition, and the challenges of growing up, making it her most dazzling novel yet.

      Newly engaged, Ellie is thrilled to be accepted into the loving Cooper clan—which seems like the perfect family she never had—until she begins to realize that Dan’s mom, Linda, is a little too involved. Dan and Linda talk on the phone every day. Twice a day. As Dan and Ellie’s intimate civil wedding ceremony gets transformed into a black-tie affair, Ellie begins to wonder if it’s possible to marry the man without marrying his mother. As troubles mount, Ellie turns to her friends—glamorous Lisa, who always looks like she’s just stepped off a runway, and wonderfully frazzled Trish—and tries to rediscover the independence she once had, and the man she still loves. But it seems that having a child and saving a marriage means growing up in ways she’d never imagined . . . A warm, witty, and wise look at mothers-in-law and what they teach us about ourselves, The Other Woman is sure to please Jane Green’s growing legion of fans.

      Love is not an abstract idea. It is not saying 'I'm here for you, let me know if you need me'. It's making the decision, when someone close to you is in trouble, about what you will DO to fix as much as you can for them. It's a 'doing' thing. A verb. For Callie, love is about looking after her family - her husband and two children - and their beautiful home. For Steff, Callie's younger sister, love is about experiencing all that life has to offer without having to ever settle down. For Lila, Callie's best friend, love is about finding a soulmate. And when she meets divorced father-of-two Eddie, she knows her search is over. For Walter and Honor, Callie and Steff's divorced parents, love is about caring for the daughters they share. Then Callie gets some life-changing news. And suddenly the whole family is about to understand what 'love' really, really means....
