'When all we ever see are the highlights, it's easy to think our friends are leading Perfect Lives. But what happens when those perfect veneers begin to crumble?

'Kate is beautiful and free.

'Rachel has the perfect family.

'Alex travels the world with her gorgeous husband.

'Michelle has an amazing career.

'But no matter how perfect their lives seem from the outside, they all have secrets - disturbing, mundane, and heartbreaking secrets. There's so much more to these women than cookie-cutter perfection. And they all feel as though they're missing... something.

'As jealousy threatens to tear friendships apart, can these women see past their friends' Perfect Lives to be there when they're needed the most?

'Perfect Lives is a funny, relatable and at times devastatingly real novel about friendship, jealousy and the fact that people's lives are rarely what they seem.' (Publication summary)
