Synopsis

A young book publicist finds herself in an all-consuming workplace affair with her literary idol in this "very impressive debut" (Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author of All the Colors of the Dark).

"Beautifully crafted, with aftershocks of conscience that will leave you processing for hours with others who've read it."--Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author of By Any Other Name

Sometimes the things you love most are the very things that can tear you apart.

Charlie is twenty-three, single and the new publicity assistant at London's preeminent independent book publishing house. Richard Aveling is fifty-six, married and the author who has defined his generation.

Charlie has long idolized the charming, illustrious writer, who also represents a link to her late mother who loved his work. But as they embark on an illicit and all-consuming affair, Charlie is forced to hide the relationship from everyone she cares about.

Too soon, she can't imagine her life without Richard, and too late, she understands that losing him will unravel more than just their relationship--it might also unravel her.

Tender and poignant, Bitter Sweet is an intimate exploration of power, of vulnerability, of what it means to love another person and what it means to love yourself.
