Publisher's Summary
A suspenseful, racy, and achingly honest story of the entangled lives of six young women and men as they take Silicon Valley’s hottest dating app public.
Tara Taylor runs six miles every morning, never eats after 09:00 p.m., is the first to arrive and last to leave the office, but is starting to wonder why she bothers. When her old Stanford flame, Todd Kent, asks her to join his four-person team handling Hook’s IPO, the deal of the decade, she sees her opportunity to break through the glass ceiling and justify six boyfriendless years of sacrifices for her career. And the $14 billion dating app might have more in store for her than a bigger bonus. But that kind of money changes people. When the deal is thrown into a tailspin, Tara and five others will each find out just what they’re willing to give up - love, family, integrity - to get to the top.
What the critics say
**A Huffington Post, New York Post and Metro Summer Reading Pick**
"Michelle Miller is a master at pacing - this tour de force gathers speed as it heats up. Adrenaline junkies, take note: You’re in for a wild ride." (Glamour)
“A digital-age Edith Wharton...hilarious, exhilarating, and so, so clever.” (Kevin Kwan, author of Crazy Rich Asians)
"You’d think it would be hard to write a rip-roaring novel that actually elicited our sympathy towards investment bankers - but Michelle Miller has managed it. Miller not only gets the reader to care about [their] anxieties and secret desires...she also spins an exciting piece of intrigue." (The Guardian, US)
