A New Year's Eve in New York: Cleo, a twenty-something British art student and bohemian, meets Frank, a forty-something American and owner of an advertising agency, in the elevator of a party venue. It’s the much-talked-about love at first sight. Cleo and Frank plunge head over heels into a passionate affair that they can barely keep up with—let alone those close to them. An absolutely addictive New York romance, both heart-wrenching and exhilarating—this is an unusually mature debut novel. With Coco Mellors, we encounter a distinctive new literary voice that we will surely hear more from in the future.
