Summer in the City - by Robyn Sisman (Paperback)

About the Book

From the internationally bestselling author of "Weekend in Paris" comes a wickedly funny, irresistible look at modern romance.

Book Synopsis

Suze Wilding and Lloyd Rockwell are complete strangers. She lives in London; he lives in New York. But when their advertising firm sponsors a job swap, having them trade apartments and jobs for the summer, they find themselves living each other's lives.

From the beginning, these two seem polar opposites--Suze is impetuous, brash, and commitment phobic, whereas Lloyd, cautious and thoughtful, is looking to settle down with his suitable girlfriend. But when Suze discovers a plot at work to get Lloyd fired, the two begin communicating long-distance, and can't help wondering if they might just be perfect for one another.
