NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Love Your Life comes a humorous and heartwarming novel about family and finding a second chance at love, set against the backdrop of the most fabulous party you’ve ever snuck into. “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 It’s been almost two years since Effie’s beloved parents got divorced, destroying the image of the happy, loving childhood she thought she had. Since then, she’s become estranged from her father and embarked on a feud with his hot (and much younger) girlfriend, Krista. And now, more earth-shattering news: They’ve sold Greenoaks, the rambling Victorian country house Effie has always called home. When Krista decides to throw a grand “house-cooling” party, Effie is originally left off the guest list—and then receives a last-minute “anti-invitation” (maybe it’s because she called Krista a gold-digger, but Krista totally deserved it, and it was mostly a joke anyway). Effie declines, but then remembers a beloved childhood treasure is still hidden in the house. Her only chance to retrieve it is to break into Greenoaks while everyone is busy celebrating. As Effie sneaks around the house, hiding under tables and peeping through trapdoors, she realizes the secrets Greenoaks holds aren’t just in the dusty passageways and hidden attics she grew up exploring. Watching how her sister, brother, and dad behave when they think no one is looking, Effie overhears conversations, makes discoveries, and begins to see her family in a new light. Then she runs into Joe—the love of her life, who long ago broke her heart, and who’s still as handsome and funny as ever—and even more truths emerge. But will Effie act on these revelations? Will she stay hidden or step out into the party and take her place with her family? And truthfully, what did she really come back to Greenoaks for? Over the course of one blowout party, Effie realizes that she must be honest with herself and confront her past before she’ll ever be able to face her future.

Rebecca har det fantastisk! Hun arbejder i Londons nye stormagasin The Look, hun kigger på hus med sin dejlige mand Luke (og drømmer inderligt om et værelse kun til sko) - og så er hun gravid! Hun kunne ikke være lykkeligere, især ikke da hun opdager, at shopping kurerer morgenkvalme. Og da kun det bedste er godt nok til den lille ny baby, er det vel kun i orden at drømme om indretningsarkitekt til børneværelset og investere i babytøj fra alle de hotte tøjmærker, designerpusletaske og den dyreste must-have barnevogn på markedet (men skal det være den praktiske, sammenklappelige til bilen, off-roaderen, den lækre café eller den med iPod?). Desuden er det magtpåliggende at få fat i den rigtige fødselslæge – hende, alle de kendte går hos. Men da VIP-lægen viser sig at være Lukes smukke, kloge, glamourøse ekskæreste, begynder Rebeccas perfekte verden at smuldre... Hormonerne raser, maven vokser, men man kan aldrig helt planlægge en fødsel eller forberede sig på den nye rolle som mor. Bogen er nr. 5 i serien En Shopaholic.

Madeleine Sophie Wickham har også skrevet bøger under sit rigtige navn.
