YOUR PERFECT LIFE

Lisa Steinke Liz Fenton

From the founders of the popular blog, “Chick Lit Is Not Dead”, a novel about two childhood best friends who wake up the morning after their 20th high school reunion to discover that they've switched bodies—and soon learn that sometimes it takes living someone else's life to appreciate your own.
Sometimes, you to have to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes to see what’s in her heart.

Best friends since childhood, Casey and Reagan couldn’t lead more different lives. While workaholic Casey rubs elbows with celebrities daily as the host of Gossip TV and comes home nightly to an empty high-rise apartment, stay-at-home mom Reagan juggles an oops baby, two fiery teenagers and a husband who only physically resembles the man she fell in love with two decades before. When an argument at their twenty-year high school reunion makes them question their choices, a magical shot they drink gives Casey and Reagan a life-changing hangover.
Waking up in each other’s bodies the next morning, they must figure out how to navigate each other’s lives. Reagan is forced to face the broadcasting dreams she gave up when she got pregnant in college and Casey finally steps out of the spotlight to face the real reason why she’s alone. They’ll soon discover they don’t know themselves or each other nearly as well as they thought they did.

Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke bring their “witty, winning style” (Sarah Pekkanen, author of The Best of Us) to every page of this novel that is sure to please fans of In Her Shoes and The Opposite of Me. Your Perfect Life is a story of humor and heart about two best friends, what they didn’t know about each other, and how, by switching lives, each learns to appreciate her own.

For every woman who's ever wondered about the path not taken, Fenton and Steinke mine—with tremendous humor and insight—the mixed blessing of unexpected second chances.

Liz and Lisa's voices are warm and comforting, like a relaxed chat with great friends while wearing cozy PJ's and sipping wine. I highly recommend Your Perfect Life!

Sassy, heartfelt, and smart, Your Perfect Life is a clever take on switched identities that will make you think hard about the choices you've made in your life and what matters most to us all in the end.

Your Perfect Life puts a fresh twist on a 'Freaky Friday'-scenario: What if you switched bodies with your best friend, and got the life you'd always secretly coveted? I adore Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke's witty, winning style and gobbled up their debut novel.

Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke blend their voices seamlessly and hilariously and remind us that even though the grass often looks greener under our friends’ lives, nobody gets happily ever unless they go after it. Your Perfect Life is clever, quirky, fresh, and ultimately, empowering!

I loved this from the very first line (which will go down in history as the funniest, bravest first line ever). Hilarious, honest and truly touching, Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke are two important new voices in women's fiction who write about life in such a real, relatable way.
