Swap for a month: life-changing adventure.

Life Swap would be a great read for someone looking for a heartwarming story about two women who embark on a life-changing adventure and learn to appreciate their own lives. The book's unique and distinctive feature is its exploration of the idea that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. Readers will enjoy Jane Green's honest and zingy writing style and the relatable characters she creates.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

______

Vicky Townsley, a magazine Features Director, lives in London alone, single, and seriously successful. But she'd give it all up in a heartbeat for marriage, children, and a house in the country.

Amber Winslow has exactly what Vicky wants; a huge stone mansion in Highfield Connecticut, children, and a busy charitable commitment for the local Women's League. But Amber isn't happy either.

So when she spots a double page spread in Poise! magazine asking married readers to life swap with a glamorous, single journalist in London, she sits down and writes a letter.

But she never expected to be picked . . .

Life Swap is the story of the grass not being as green as you might think, and of discovering that happiness is not always where you expect it to be.
