Book excerpt: From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Party Crasher and Love Your Life comes a witty and emotionally charged novel that delves into the heart of a marriage, and how those we love and think we know best can sometimes surprise us the most “Sophie Kinsella keeps her finger on the cultural pulse, while leaving me giddy with laughter.”—Jojo Moyes, author of The Giver of Stars and The Last Letter from Your Lover After ten years together, Sylvie and Dan have a comfortable home, fulfilling jobs, and beautiful twin girls, and they communicate so seamlessly they finish each other’s sentences. They have a happy marriage and believe they know everything there is to know about each other. Until it’s casually mentioned to them that they could be together for another sixty-eight years . . . and panic sets in. They decide to bring surprises into their marriage to keep it fresh and fun. But in their pursuit of Project Surprise Me—from unexpected gifts to restaurant dates to sexy photo shoots—mishaps arise, with disastrous and comical results. Gradually, surprises turn to shocking truths. And when a scandal from the past is uncovered, they begin to wonder if they ever really knew each other at all.

Book excerpt: Can you love someone you dont like? They say opposites attract. Cala was a quiet, studious, goal-oriented overachiever. Micah was a handsome, rich playboy who partied like there was no tomorrow. A quiet beauty, she was unlike anyone he had ever met. From their first encounter, his attention fixated on having her by his side. Though he faced resistance at every turn, his perseverance finally paid off during a magical dance at the country club. From the moment she said yes, her life became a series of surprises and broken promises. He viewed her protest as her way of showing gratitude. Cala was resigned to enduring the life she had chosen, always hoping time would mellow his extravagance. A person can only endure so much disappointment. Late nights, secret phone calls, and wild expenditures can cause even the most trusting wife to become suspicious. Cala knew she must act for the sake of her own sanity. Now she is planning a little surprise of her own.
