British sensation Jane Green delivers a sparkling tale of old friends reunited and old jealousies rekindled.

Catherine Warner and Simon Nelson are best friends: total opposites, always together, and both unlucky in love. Cath is scatterbrained, messy, andā€”since she had her heart broken a few years backā€”emotionally closed off. Si is impossibly tidy, bitchy, and desperate for a man of his own. They live in Londonā€™s West Hampstead along with their lifelong friends, Josh and Lucy, who are happily married with a devil-spawn child and a terrifying Swedish nanny, Ingrid.

Allā€™s well (sort of) until the sudden arrival of a college friendā€”the stunningly beautiful Portia, who is known for breaking hearts. Though theyā€™ve grown up and grown apart from Portia, the four friends welcome her back into the fold. But does Portia have a hidden agenda or is she merely looking to reconnect with old friends? Her reappearance soon unleashes a rollicking series of events that tests the foursomeā€™s friendships to the limit and leaves them wondering if a happy ending is in store.

Fortunately, Cath has plenty to take her mind off Portiaā€™s schemesā€”like her gutsy decision to leave her job in advertising to fulfill her dream of opening a bookstore. And then thereā€™s James, the sexy real-estate agent who keeps dropping by even after the bookstore deal is done. With his irresistible smile and boyish charm could he be the one to melt Cathā€™s heart?

Told with Jane Greenā€™s captivating wit and flare, Bookends is above all a story about friendshipā€”its twists, turns and complicationsā€”and how it weathers the challenges of love, ambition, marriage, and, most of all, growing up. Warmhearted, sophisticated, and full of delicious surprises, Bookends is Greenā€™s most dazzling novel yet.
