Publisher Description

The bestselling author of The Devil Wears Prada and Everyone Worth Knowing is back with a delicious novel about a trio of best friends in Manhattan who agree to change their lives in the most personal and dramatic way possible—and to do it within one calendar year.

Meet Emmy, Leigh, and Adriana. Best friends since college, each has seen her share of career foils and romantic foibles over the past decade. Now, as they approach thirty, they’re looking toward their future...and they’re not quite sure they like what they see.

When they are each alone on Valentine’s Day, the trio makes a pact. Within one year, each woman will change the thing that most challenges her. For Emmy, it will be to find romance—or a fling—in every foreign country she visits. For Leigh, a book editor with a dream boyfriend and dream apartment, no change seems necessary—until she starts to notice a brilliant and brooding man named Jesse. And for commitment-phobic, drop-dead-gorgeous Adriana, her goal is to have an engagement ring and a house in Scarsdale. Each woman starts the year with the best of intentions—which is exactly why the pact goes immediately, and exceptionally, awry.

Filled with delicious insider details, Chasing Harry Winston whisks readers into the heart of an elite world and unforgettable characters. Let the games begin!

"Good, quick, read. Teaching women to do what they want and what is best for them. Only thing I didn't like was that everyone felt that sex was just like a handshake. Other than that, I loved the characters and the story."

    " I wanted to see if I would like this book since reading The Devil Wears Prada but it too was disappointing. the main characters are not very likable and the situations they get into are way too contrived and wrap up way too neatly. "

    " Meh. Kept waiting to like the characters I was reading about. While the girls did improve, I found them to be awfully self-centered. Just wasn't a very compelling read, even if it was supposed to be light-hearted and a fun vacation story. "

    " Good vacation read -- but the writing is cliche. I rolled my eyes for the first half of the book, but once I got going I was rooting for the juicy stuff to happen. It didn't let me down. "

    " Not as good as her first two, but this satisfied my need for reading something not on the YA list. Ended just as I thought it would with no surprises. Good, easy beach read. I wish the characters had been a bit more engaging (maybe stick to one in-depth rather than three superficially). "
