Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * "A gem of a novel."--Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Spark of Light and Small Great Things From the author of Surprise Me comes an irresistible story of love and empowerment about a young woman with a complicated family, a handsome man who might be "the one," and an IOU that changes everything. Fixie Farr has always lived by her father's motto: "Family first." And since her dad passed away, leaving his charming housewares store in the hands of his wife and children, Fixie spends all her time picking up the slack from her siblings instead of striking out on her own. The way Fixie sees it, if she doesn't take care of her father's legacy, who will? It's simply not in Fixie's nature to say no to people. So when a handsome stranger in a coffee shop asks her to watch his laptop for a moment, she not only agrees--she ends up saving it from certain disaster. To thank Fixie for her quick thinking, the computer's owner, Sebastian, an investment manager, scribbles an IOU on a coffee sleeve and attaches his business card. Fixie laughs it off--she'd never actually claim an IOU from a stranger. Would she? But then Fixie's childhood crush, Ryan, comes back into her life, and his lack of a profession pushes all of Fixie's buttons. As always, she wants nothing for herself--but she'd love Seb to give Ryan a job. No sooner has Seb agreed than the tables are turned once more and a new series of IOUs between Seb and Fixie--from small favors to life-changing moments--ensues. Soon Fixie, Ms. Fixit for everyone else, is torn between her family and the life she really wants. Does she have the courage to take a stand? Will she finally grab the life, and love, she really wants? Praise for I Owe You One "This book is a shot of pure joy!"--Jenny Colgan, author of The Bookshop on the Corner "A humorous exploration of family life, finding love and the difficulties of coming into one's own as a young professional woman . . . The entertaining cast of characters . . . will certainly remind readers why nineteen years after her first hit Kinsella remains one of the reigning queens of women's fiction."--The Washington Post "I Owe You One is another impossibly delightful story by Sophie Kinsella, a must-read for her die-hard fans and new readers alike."--PopSugar

Never trust the fae... especially the queen of the fae. Tricked into a slippery alliance, Georjie has no choice but to trust the only being with enough power to stop the black witch.

Trish had dreams once: dreams of graduating high school, getting into ballet school, and becoming a renowned dancer, with her parents and big brother cheering her on all the while. But those dreams died with her brother. Ever since Josh’s fatal car accident, Trish has been a shell of her former self, and her family has struggled to keep it together. Now, her father hides in his work and her mother drinks her tears away. While Trish silently blames herself for Josh’s death, both of her parents struggle with their own guilt. Neither one can look beyond their own sorrow to see how deeply Trish is hurting and needs help too. So, Trish must find a way to survive the storms of grief on her own. She learns to hide, learns to numb, and learns to bury her joy to ease her pain. But self-destruction is a desperate crutch, not a cure, and Trish knows it. As she navigates her family’s disfunction, her best friend’s own crises, and the treacherous waters of teenage romance, she must find a way to power through and dig deep—to find the strength she needs to heal before it’s too late and her family fully tears itself apart.
