An instant bestseller when it was published anonymously in 1929—the story of a divorce and its aftermath, which scandalized the Jazz Age. It's 1924, and Peter and Patricia have what looks to be a very modern marriage. Both drink. Both smoke. Both work, Patricia as a head copywriter at a major department store. When it comes to sex with other people, both believe in “the honesty policy.” Until they don‘t. Or, at least, until Peter doesn‘t—and a shell-shocked, lovesick Patricia finds herself starting out all over again, but this time around as a different kind of single woman: the ex-wife. An instant bestseller when it was published anonymously in 1929, Ex-Wife captures the speakeasies, night clubs, and parties that defined Jazz Age New York—alongside the morning-after aspirin and calisthenics, the lunch-hour visits to the gym, the girl-talk, and the freedoms and anguish of solitude. It also casts a cool eye on the bedrooms and the doctor’s offices where, despite rising hemlines, the men still call the shots. The result is a unique view of what its author Ursula Parrott called “the era of the one-night stand”: an era very much like our own.
Writing a book about the negative aspects of your life is not easy. It takes a lot of thought and emotional effort to relive circumstances that you have tried to shut out. We are living in a cultural war where the family is the target. Hopefully, The Ex-Wife From Hell will motivate you to keep your marriage in place, or if you are single, do not allow the war to keep you single. I hope that my story will inspire all of us to be responsible and change the culture we are living in.
Two months before Sarah's twin sons leave home for their gap year travel, her husband Andrew, a keen amateur thespian, announces that he's leaving her for his leading lady. Happily married for the past twenty years, Sarah has no idea how to fill her empty house, her empty days, nor play the role of discarded wife. As Sarah is to discover, the way forward is strewn with hazards and humiliations. If she is not to be bludgeoned to pieces, she must acquire skills for survival ... fast. Happily for Sarah, help (and hindrance!) is at hand in the form of well-meaning neighbours, a misbehaved mongrel, an eventful trip to Majorca, an unassuming plumber, and an unwelcome role as Mrs De Winter in the forthcoming Ambercross Players' production of Rebecca. In this wickedly funny and hugely entertaining comedy of manners, life in a small Wiltshire village is exposed with a highly infectious sense of humour and a devastatingly accurate eye for detail. The sparkling comedy romance from the much-loved, bestselling author of Recipe for Scandal.

God's Ex-Wife is a "novoir" (part novel/part memoir) in which anecdotes from both authors' lives are woven into a work of fiction, though every character in the story was inspired (at least in part) by an actual person who left an impact on David, Jessica, or both. We never stop learning, and everyone who enters our life is a teacher of sorts (though life itself is the ultimate teacher!) God's Ex-Wife, despite the name, is not about religion; It's about choice, identity, love, education, friendship, and HOPE. It has never been harder to be young in America, especially as a misfit. There is a whole country between New York and Los Angeles, and much of that region is little more than ""The MoFN"" (Middle of F**king Nowhere). This book is offered as a beacon to the young people in those places who-- because of their sexuality, their race, or merely their independent spirit -- have never ""fit in."" We see you. We appreciate you. And we do NOT want you change. But we do want you to leave. You want it too, and we want to empower you to do that. The MoFN (Middle of F**king Nowhere) is no kind of place for a big, Jewish girl with strange clothes, or her only friend: a gay boy with even stranger clothes. But for now that's exactly where Debbie and Phil are stuck. Growing up in the 90's in a cold New England town with nothing to do, no exposure to the world beyond, or experience with people of color (who will eventually play a huge role in their lives), and bullied on a daily basis, they turn to their love of writing and performing , initially as an escape from their monotone misery, and an antidote to their boredom. It is only through the efforts of Mrs. Rosen, Debbie's eccentric and sophisticated mentor, that they realize how far their talents might actually take them. But is there more to Debbie's weirdness than just punk rock and black nail polish? Long since divorced from religion, she is not exactly big on faith. So how does Debbie know what she knows? She can't even answer that herself.
“The literary equivalent of the When Harry Met Sally line, ‘tell me I’ll never be out there again’.” —JoJo Moyes, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Me Before You Nora Ephron meets Bridget Jones's Diary in Guardian columnist Stella Grey’s heartrendingly honest, witty memoir about her online odyssey to find real love in a virtual world. Singers may croon about love being lovelier the second time around, but it can also be far more complicated. When Stella Grey’s husband leaves her for another woman, she fears she'll be unhappy and alone for the rest of her life. But daytime vodka-drinking and ice-cream are only short-term consolations. Realizing that she needs to take her future into her own hands, Stella dives into the world of online dating. What follow are 693 days of hilarious, depressing, and baffling encounters that unfold both in person and online. Stella quickly discovers that the more perfect a man appears on her screen, the warier she should be. It's a game of chance, with some players perfectly willing to lie to get what they want, whether that’s a lifetime of love or a very brief encounter. Amid flirty emails, Skype chats, and awkward small talk over glasses of bad wine (which may or may not lead to awkward sex), Stella struggles to remain optimistic. To succeed, does she have to redefine the kind of man she’s looking for—or change the kind of woman she is? Funny, raw, and heartwarming, this book is a brutally honest account of the world of online dating—a world which so many of us are a part of, no matter our age—drawn from Stella’s hugely popular Guardian column, “Mid-life Ex-Wife” (and expanded with new material) about her search for a second chance at love.

At the one-year anniversary of his death, legendary musician Prince's first wife shares a uniquely intimate, candid, and revelatory look inside the personal and professional life of one of the world's most beloved icons. In The Most Beautiful, a title inspired by the hit song Prince wrote about their legendary love story, Mayte Garcia for the first time shares the deeply personal story of their relationship and offers a singular perspective on the music icon and their world together: from their unconventional meeting backstage at a concert (and the long-distance romance that followed), to their fairy-tale wedding (and their groundbreaking artistic partnership), to the devastating losses that ultimately dissolved their romantic relationship for good. Throughout it all, they shared a bond more intimate than any other in Prince's life. No one else can tell this story or can provide a deeper, more nuanced portrait of Prince -- both the famously private man and the pioneering, beloved artist -- than Mayte, his partner during some of the most pivotal personal and professional years of his career. The Most Beautiful is a book that will be returned to for decades, as Prince's music lives on with generations to come.
