Tracie's got a weakness for classic bad boys who seem too good to be true...and usually are.

Jon, on the other hand, loves Tracie-and not "just as a friend." But Jon is no bad boy. In fact, he's about as good as they come.

But when he convinces a skeptical Tracie to teach him some tricks of the trade, she turns him into a heartbreakingly hot bad boy-and soon it seems half Seattle's women want Jon to themselves. Including Tracie.

"A guilty pleasure." (Entertainment Weekly)

Review:

‘Lisa Jewell with knobs on‘ The Mirror

‘a sparkling page-turner which is alternately amusing and touching, and always entertaining’ Hello

‘wickedly funny’ Real magazine

‘Think My Fair Lady with coffee bars’ Company

Praise for Bestseller:

‘Goldsmith hands out her characters’ rewards and comeuppances like Jane Austen dealing blackjack... You keep licking your fingers and reaching for the next page as if it were another poato chip’
Newsweek

Praise for The Switch

‘Fizzing with acerbic dialogue and high-level sexual slapstick, this is a very funny romantic comedy, offering plenty of catharsis for women at both ends of the marital spectrum, and very little comfort for the husbands in between’
Good Housekeeping

From the Back Cover:

'A romantic, sophisticated and wickedly funny comedy by the author of 'The First Wives Club' and 'Young Wives''

Two friends meet regularly at a hip caf� in downtown Seattle to discuss their problems over a cup of mochaccino. Jon is Mr Very Nice Guy – so why can't he get a girlfriend? Tracie, meanwhile, is never short of a man, although they treat her so casually – like Phil, a wild and crazy rock musician. But women secretly love this behaviour, Tracie explains, and even Jon can become irresistible, once Tracie has taught him to be a Bad Boy too.

A trendy haircut, cool new clothes and endless lectures later, and Jon's nerdy friends and Tracie's man-hungry female colleagues are green with envy and hot with desire respectively. But has Tracie created a monster?

"Goldsmith hands out her characters' rewards and comeuppances like Jane Austen dealing blackjack"
