Review
Praise for Bestseller: 'Goldsmith hands out her characters' rewards and comeuppances like Jane Austen dealing blackjack... You keep licking your fingers and reaching for the next page as if it were another poato chip' Newsweek The Switch. 'Fizzing with acerbic dialogue and high-level sexual slapstick, this is a very funny romantic comedy, offering plenty of catharsis for women at both ends of the marital spectrum, and very little comfort for the husbands in between' Good Housekeeping
At 28 Jon Delano is the 'sexless savant' of Seattle, a thoughtful, caring man who has no success with women (except his various stepmothers and his mother who adore his old-fashioned charm). He complains to Tracie, his closest friend since college days, that he cannot attract women. Very much a modern babe, she decides to help Jon change his image into one of the 'bad boys' that women seem to love. Tracie bullies Jon into allowing her to perform a complete makeover on him - his clothes, haircut, topics of conversation and dating etiquette - while she secretly plans an article on the process for the newspaper where she works. Tracie herself is enmeshed with the sexy bad boy Phil who won't commit to her but is good in bed. Jon finds Tracie's advice hard to follow at first, but then the worm turns, and he starts to attract women and have casual sex. Tracie gets jealous and realizes it's Jon she has loved all along - but her article about him is about to hit the press.... Although not the most credible of stories and over-long in places, this is an entertaining read with numerous witty observations about fashion, image and relationships among the 20-something brigade. From the author of the best-selling The First Wives Club, it's as light as the froth on a cappuccino. (Kirkus UK)
