Someone Else's Shoes: A Novel

Another instant New York Times bestseller from the author of Me Before You and The Giver of Stars!

“Very few authors have the power to make you laugh on one page and cry on the next. Moyes is one of them.” —The New York Times

Who are you when you are forced to walk in someone else’s shoes?

Nisha Cantor lives the globetrotting life of the seriously wealthy, until her husband inexplicably announces a divorce and cuts her off. Nisha is determined to hang onto the life she has created for herself. But in the meantime, she must scramble to cope—she doesn’t even have the shoes she was, until a moment ago, standing in.

That’s because Sam Kemp—at the bleakest point of her life—has accidentally taken Nisha’s gym bag. But Sam hardly has time to worry about a lost gym bag—she’s struggling to keep herself, her out-of-work husband, and her sarcastic teenage daughter afloat. When she tries on Nisha’s six-inch high Christian Louboutin red crocodile shoes for a series of important meetings, the unexpected results give her a jolt of confidence that makes her realize something must change—and that thing is herself.

Full of Jojo Moyes’ signature humor, brilliant storytelling, and warmth, Someone Else’s Shoes is a story about how just one little thing can suddenly change everything.
