Jane Green’s bestselling novels are rich with wry, clever insights into the romantic lives of her idiosyncratic heroines, winning them a devoted fan base. Now, with The Other Woman, Viking will reintroduce America to the inimitable Jane Green.

If opposites attract, Ellie and Dan are perfect for each other. She’s impulsive; he follows all the rules. Ellie is a virtual orphan, whereas Dan’s family is as close-knit as they come. At first, Ellie is thrilled to be accepted into the Cooper clan and embraces Dan’s mom, Linda, as the mother she never had—until she begins to realize that Linda’s "mothering" is far more intrusive than even the best daughter-in-law can handle. What can Dan and his mother possibly have to talk about on the phone twice a day? And how has the intimate civil ceremony Ellie always dreamed of turned into a black-tie affair that would rival a royal wedding? Suddenly, Ellie finds herself wondering if it’s possible to get an annulment—from Linda.

A hilarious yet touching look at mothers-in-law and what they teach us about ourselves, The Other Woman is a brilliant hit from a novelist whose star just continues to rise.

  • I have been reading way too many books about family, marriage, relationship this past month. But I love Jane Green, and I am glad that I found time to read it. This book is much about mother-in-laws, and it's not difficult to relate to.
