<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"If you had one day to go undercover and smash the patriarchy, would you? Delia Reese is about to try in this breakout novel that's 13 Going on 30 meets What Women Want. Delia Reese wants to break Wall Street's glass ceiling. Landing her dream job at Monty Fuhrmann, a world-class investment bank, would also bring her closer to her long-time, unattainable crush, Eric. But despite her stellar resume, the overwhelmingly male superiors in her field don't see past pink shirts and tailored skirts. Following a failed interview, she commiserates with her roommates and drunkenly finds herself wishing she was a man. Hey, if society wasn't locked into gender roles, she'd probably already be pitching IPOs. The next morning, Delia wakes up feeling different. . . because she's in an unfamiliar, masculine body. Convincing her roommates that she's the same Delia proves to be almost as challenging as her ill-aimed morning pee. This is not how she planned to get ahead. But...since her wish came true, she might as well take advantage. She's got a fresh perspective, a borrowed suit, and a new name--Dick. And she's got a lot to prove" --<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"A hilarious, laugh-out-loud, thoroughly entertaining story."--Helena Hunting, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author</b> <p/> <b>She has one day to break all the rules.

Instead of pursuing a career as a couples counselor, she wrote about one in her first novel. You'll often find her writing stories about fabulous, independent heroines, pretending to be Sara Bareilles at the piano, watching reruns of Sex and the City, or sprinkling a little too much feta on her salad. <p/> Amanda calls Virginia Beach home but loves to travel the world with her high school sweetheart husband any chance they get.
