Book Description

"To say that Babs has been my closest friend for sixteen years is rather like saying that Einstein was good at sums. We were blood sisters from the age of eleven (before my mother prized the razor out of Babs's hand)."

But now Babs, noisy and as fun as a day at the beach, is getting married Continue

"To say that Babs has been my closest friend for sixteen years is rather like saying that Einstein was good at sums. We were blood sisters from the age of eleven (before my mother prized the razor out of Babs's hand)."

But now Babs, noisy and as fun as a day at the beach, is getting married. And Natalie Miller, twenty-seven, senior press officer for the London Ballet, panics. What happens when your best friend pledges everlasting love to someone else?

It doesn't help that Nat is dating a guy named Saul Bowcock. As the confetti flutters, her good-girl veneer cracks, and she falls into an alluringly unsuitable affair that spins her crazily out of control. Nat is on the rebound and allergic to the truth -- about Babs's relationship, her boyfriend's ambition, her parents' divorce, and her golden-boy brother's little Australian secret. Her mother's lasagna and her roommate Andy's fuzzy slippers are also monstrous affronts. But what Nat really needs to face is the mirror -- and herself....

Wickedly witty and refreshingly honest, Running in Heels is a hilarious look at the lies we tell ourselves -- and the unwanted truths that only our best friends can tell us.

    I am IN LOVE with all books by Anna Maxted; she is a brilliant writer. She appeals to me with her witty comments and sarcastic undertones. I was attracted to the "Behaving Like Adults" book cover while browsing through books at a local discount store, found it, bought it, read it and have been a fan ever since. Every book that I have read by her I have enjoyed thoroughly and would recommend to anyone. These are books that you can buy to call your own, they are inexpensive and something you'll want to read over and over again.
