From a National Book Award finalist, a warmhearted story of two very different women who make an unexpected connection.

For readers of Rebecca Serle and Jennifer Close, comes an upmarket novel that follows vintage fashion-store clerk Nora and her husband, who are in debt and utterly exhausted from their fertility struggles. When fabulous socialite Evelyn wanders into the vintage clothing store where Nora works, an obsessive and unbalanced friendship forms. And when Evelyn offers to carry Nora and her husband's baby as a favour, Nora's fortune becomes even more complicated.
