The brand new hilarious, emotional and thought-provoking book club read about twin sisters who make a bet to switch lives for a week, for fans of David Nicholls, Sophie Kinsella and Cecelia Ahern. Two sisters. One Bet. And a lifetime of secrets uncovered… Morning TV’s favourite twin sisters, Alice and Edie, may share the screen, but that’s where their similarities end. Their viewpoints are far from identical, and whilst their on-air clashes keep viewers hooked, off-camera, their relationship is far from picture-perfect. After a heated argument on live television threatens their jobs, the fiery duo make a bet: neither could last a week in the other’s shoes. Determined to prove each other wrong, they secretly swap lives — without telling a soul. What starts as a battle of wills quickly spirals into chaos, as each sister discovers that the other's life is far more complicated than it seems. Between dodging awkward work situations, marital issues, and meddling in each other’s families, Alice and Edie’s rivalry turns from a competitive bet into an opportunity to help change each other’s lives for the better. But will their relationship survive? –––––––––––––––– AUTHORS LOVE THE SISTER SWITCH! 'The novel we've all been waiting for.

One More Yesterday

Impossibile leggere questa storia senza sorridere! Eve è elettrizzata all’idea che tre delle sue migliori amiche e suo fratello si sposeranno nel corso della stessa estate. Ma quando scopre che tra gli invitati ci sarà anche l’uomo che le ha spezzato il cuore, il suo umore cambia drasticamente: adesso spera solo che l’incubo finisca presto. Era con Ben, infatti, che Eve sognava di pronunciare il fatidico sì. E se il suo ritorno in città non fosse già abbastanza pesante, le richieste di cui le amiche improvvisamente la sommergono le sembrano insopportabili: trovare dei fenicotteri giganti da giardino, occuparsi dei cani durante la luna di miele, lucidare un’infinità di pavimenti… L’amore di Eve per le cerimonie nuziali potrebbe presto finire. Per fortuna esiste la sua rubrica sui matrimoni: e lì – grazie a tutto il materiale che sta accumulando – che Eve può dar voce al suo lieve risentimento, sperando che nessuna delle coppie da cui è circondata lo scopra. Ma, come si dice, love is in the air… Sarà possibile non lasciarsi conquistare? Le sue migliori amiche si stanno per sposare Lei adora i matrimoni Cosa mai potrebbe andare storto? «Impossibile leggere questa storia adorabile senza sorridere.» «Uno dei libri più divertenti che ho avuto la fortuna di leggere.» «Questa autrice mi ha conquistata con la sua storia dolcissima!» Charlotte Butterfield lavora con le parole in ogni forma: è giornalista, copywriter e autrice di romanzi. È vissuta a Bristol, a Dubai e adesso si è stabilita a Roma, dove vive la sua dolce vita. Il matrimonio delle mie migliori amiche è il primo libro pubblicato in Italia.
