Glitz, glamour, and mouth-watering descriptions of couture and cuisine don't distract from the heart of the book--a tale of women, relationships, and the search for love, purpose and meaning in life and marriage. If Candace Bushnell had a west coast counterpart, Anita Hughes would be it!" --<i>Karen White, New York Times bestselling author of The Beach Trees</i> <p/>"<i>Market Street</i> is the captivating story of high end glamour meeting reality, couture fashion meeting organic fruits and vegetables, and a reluctant heiress meeting her own dream and running with it. Cassie Blake is the heiress of a department store who has been so busy trying to please everyone else, she has never found her own life. I loved how she yanked herself back up after a blow and finally created the life she wanted to live and by the end, you're cheering for her. Loved it. Read it in one sitting, coffee and chocolate in hand. <i>Market Street</i> is hard to resist." --<i>Cathy Lamb, author of A Different Kind of Normal</i> <p/>"Witty and tremendously fun, Market Street kept me hooked until the very end!" --<i>Jane Porter, author of The Good Woman</i> <p/>"Filled with unexpected twists and deft observation, <i>Market Street </i>is both an indulgent peek into the world of San Francisco's moneyed elite and a tender exploration of female friendship through triumph and betrayal. A delicious, page-turning, satisfying read." --<i>Beatriz Williams, bestselling author of Overseas</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>ANITA HUGHES is also the author of <i>Monarch Beach</i>.
