Description

Dylan has achieved the impossible - a life in New York. On the surface, it's everything she thought it would be. But when she walks out of her career and apartment into a housesit for an artist, she begins to question what she's truly after. As she navigates this new chapter, Dylan meets Gabe, who is married to Kate, but insists it's not a thing. An affair follows, consuming her and forcing her to consider what is fixed and what is variable. Can a person be both? As spring turns to summer, Dylan's experiments in living test loyalties and boundaries until an unexpected encounter between the two couples forces her to confront her future. With brilliant prose and unsettling originality, this debut novel explores the complexities of identity and relationships.
