Fancy That
Author: Marta Acosta

An impossible-to-please event planner, her too-good-to-be-true assistant, and an abandoned child obsessed with pirates - what could go wrong? — LIBRARY JOURNAL Women's Summer Reading Selection — "A witty, emotion-packed contemporary romance novel that will leave you longing for the story to go on." --ROMANCE JUNKIES — "To borrow a phrase from Nancy... more », you will be absolutely thrillified! I was. It was the perfect flirty, happy, sweet, and thoroughly enjoyable read." --LOVE ROMANCE PASSION

"Have you ever read about a character that's so delusional and crackalicious that right from the get-go, she easily becomes your favorite? Well, that's Nancy to me!" --THE BOOK LUSH

"A fantastic feel-good contemporary love story." --DIRTY SEXY BOOKS

She's the girl you love to hate because she has it all--looks, wealth, status, and far too much self-confidence. So when snooty young Nancy Carrington-Chambers flees her hardworking, but "not fabulous enough" husband for a chic San Francisco apartment and starts an event planning company, Froth, everyone is hoping for her to fail, but sure she'll succeed...again.

She hires the perfect assistant--Derek is gorgeous, British, and gay. He listens attentively to her opinions on fashion and people. Together they know they can turn society's dreariest gala into the most exciting party of the year.

Nancy's quest for a perfectly stylish life is derailed by her growing attraction to Derek and the arrival of her irresponsible jetsetting cousin, who abandons her neglected little girl on Nancy's doorstep. Suddenly Nancy is dealing with a child's needs and messes and seeking advice from a divorced mother on the fringes of her social circle.

Nancy's life begins to change in ways she'd never imagined. But she discovers too late that her husband isn't as complacent as he seemed and her carefully constructed world crashes down all at once. Nancy learns that real style takes risks, but is she willing to give up everything she values for those she's grown to love?

"A fiercely fun and witty contemporary love story nestled in one of San Francisco's trendiest neighborhoods, Pacific Heights." --NOB HILL GAZETTE

"Chick-lit with brains, manners, zest, and know-how." --SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE

"An ideal volume to throw in your beach bag...an easy, breezy read that managed to suck us in with its San Francisco references, chick lit 'tude and love drama-rama." --SF INDIE FASHION

"[Acosta] uses humor and romance to show that in life and love, perfection is overrated." --BOOKLIST
