Jane Green, author of the best-sellers ''Second
Chance'' and ''Straight Talking'', examines love,
friendships and their limits in her moving and
entertaining novel ''Girl Friday''. Since her divorce a
year ago, Kit Hargrove feels she has finally got her
life back on track. Gone is the lonely Wall Street widow
she used to be, and in her place is a happier, more
fulfilled woman, with a new job she loves - working for
uberfamous novelist Robert McClore - a small but cosy
new home with her children, and the beginnings of a
tentative friendship with her exhusband. She even has
time for yoga classes with her new best friend Tracy.
The only thing missing is a man. And when Tracy
introduces her to Steve - charming, romantic and
attentive - Kit wonders if he could be the final piece
of the jigsaw. But Kit doesn't know that Tracy is hiding
a secret, one that could destroy their friendship, her
happiness with Steve, even her new life. Torn between
suspicion and love, Kit doesn't know which way to turn.
For there are some betrayals that a friendship can't
survive...Praise for Jane Green ''A densely plotted brew
of love and mistakes.'' (''The Times'').''Green keeps us
transfixed until the very last word.'' (''Heat'').
