”I’ll read anything she writes” — Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author
The perfect book for Sex and the City and Emily in Paris fans, I Heart New York by Lindsey Kelk truly celebrates the city that never sleeps.
It’s official. Angela Clarke is in love—with the most fabulous city in the world.
When Angela catches her boyfriend with another woman at her best friend’s wedding, she’s heartbroken and desperate to run away. (Especially once she’s confronted the bride and inadvertently broken the groom’s hand, in front of the entire reception!) Fleeing the messy situation and clutching little more than a crumpled bridesmaid dress, a pair of Louboutins, and her passport, Angela jumps on a plane, destination—NYC.
Taking refuge in a charming hotel room, Angela befriends Jenny, an effervescent concierge on the lookout for a new best friend. With the help of a New York-style makeover, some serious retail therapy, and a whirlwind tour of the city, Angela finds herself juggling two irresistibly sexy men and landing her dream gig as a writer, chronicling her New York adventures for a prestigious fashion magazine. But while it's one thing to dish about your romantic escapades to readers, it's quite another to unravel the complexities of your own heart. Angela may have fallen head over heels for the Big Apple, but is her love for New York stronger than her ties back home?
I Heart New York is funny, sunny, and sexy; a big hearted, Big Apple treat for Sofia Kinsella and Emily Griffin readers.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Kelk's debut novel, rife with familiar chick-lit tropes, Londoner Angela Clark discovers her fianc Mark's infidelity at her best friend Louisa's wedding and impulsively hops a plane to New York the next day, funding her trip with cash from their joint account. After checking into a fancy hotel, she's befriended by concierge Jenny Lopez, who seems to have nothing better to do than take Angela on shopping sprees and gush about how she's become her hero. Meanwhile, bland Angela curiously attracts several charming, attractive men, eventually having to make a rich man poor man choice between banker Tyler Moore and musician Alex Reid, equally handsome. Angela begins making a startling amount of money writing a blog that documents her experiences in the big (sex and the) city, and soon she's faced with a dilemma: stay in NYC with her new life or head back to England, where she's been offered a fabulous magazine job? Will she hold the interest of those amazing men? Will she have to grow up and face people from her past? Perhaps designer bag-crazy, extraordinarily lucky Angela has something else going for her. Unfortunately, readers will never know.
