The Opposite Of Love





THE OPPOSITE OF LOVE is a brilliant debut: absorbing and clever, bold and sassy, deeply touching with more than a few laugh-out-loud moments.

When feisty and successful Manhattan attorney Emily Haxby ends her happy relationship just as her boyfriend is on the verge of proposing, she can't explain to herself, let alone her closest friends, why she did it.

And whilst Emily contemplates whether she has made a huge mistake, the rest of her world begins to unravel. She is assigned - by a boss who can't keep his hands to himself - to a multimillion-dollar lawsuit where she must defend the very values she detests, and there's something wrong with Grandpa Jack, the person she cares most about in the world...

As Emily finally begins to take control of her life and come to terms with issues she didn't even know she had, she realizes that perhaps what she wants has been there all along...

Praise for The Opposite Of Love

Gripping, wise and extremely refreshing. I loved it.

Marian Keyes

An appealing debut

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

One of the pleasures of Buxbaum's novel is her manipulation of the conventions of Sex and the City and its literary ilk.

WASHINGTON POST

Debuts don't often come as fresh as this.
