Heart Conditions

A “delightful, witty” novel about a relationship expert whose own love life is falling to pieces (Amy FitzHenry, author of Cold Feet).
You’d think running a massively successful relationship counseling practice would guarantee smooth sailing in a girl’s own love life. And yet, Breakup Doctor Brook Ogden has spent the last year sifting through the fallout from the disastrous decision that led to her unconscious uncoupling with boyfriend Ben Garrett.
Despite advising her clients you can’t be friends with an ex, she and Ben are becoming buddies—while Brook hopes for more. That is, until Ben introduces his new girlfriend, Perfect Pamela, a paragon of womanly virtues who is everything Brook is not.
While Brook navigates her newly volatile emotional life, an unwelcome surprise shows up on her doorstep: the ex-fiancé who broke her heart two years ago. Between her ex’s desire to rekindle their attachment, her best friend Sasha’s unexpected crisis, and her own unquenchable feelings for Ben, Brook finds herself questioning the personal progress she’s made—and threatened with the highest-stakes Breakup Doctor failures she’s ever faced.
“Will have you giggling out loud and shaking your head at the same time . . . Fox’s books are like a box of fine chocolates. Not to be eaten quickly but to be savored and enjoyed.” —Fresh Fiction
