Hayden Anderson is a Pulitzer-prize winning human thundercloud. And they're both on balmy Little Crescent Island for the same reason: To write the biography of a woman no one has seen in years--or at least to meet with the octogenarian who claims to be \u003ci\u003ethe\u003c\/i\u003e Margaret Ives. Tragic heiress, former tabloid princess, and daughter of one of the most storied (and scandalous) families of the 20th Century. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e When Margaret invites them both for a one-month trial period, after which she'll choose the person who'll tell her story, there are three things keeping Alice's head in the game. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e One: Alice genuinely likes people, which means people usually like Alice--and she has a whole month to win the legendary woman over. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Two: She's ready for this job and the chance to impress her perennially unimpressed family with a Serious Publication. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Three: Hayden Anderson, who should have no reason to be concerned about losing this book, is glowering at her in a shaken-to-the core way that suggests he sees her as competition. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e But the problem is, Margaret is only giving each of them pieces of her story. Pieces they can't swap to put together because of an ironclad NDA and an inconvenient yearning pulsing between them every time they're in the same room. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e And it's becoming abundantly clear that their story--just like the tale Margaret's spinning--could be a mystery, tragedy, or love ballad...depending on who's telling it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emily Henry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berkley Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/22\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.97d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780593441299\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2024 pg. 6\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmily Henry is the #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eGreat Big Beautiful Life\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFunny Story\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHappy Place\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBook Lovers\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePeople We Meet on Vacation\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eBeach Read\u003c\/i\u003e.
