Trust me, reader, you are going to want to gather around for this one.”
For fans of the domestic drama The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller, and Apples Never Fall by Liane Moriarty, The Birdcage looks at reversed-gender roles, women breaking workplace barriers, and how secrets can hurt us.
One true love. Under fire from all sides. They’ll need each other to escape their birdcage.
Matt’s in awe of his wife.
Feisty, intelligent, capable, and now excelling in her first executive sales position. But Jillian’s job requires long hours, and Matt can’t help but suspect an affair. Jillian’s become more suited to her impressive boss than the hapless schoolteacher she’s outgrown.
Jillian’s marriage is slipping through her fingers.
Jill loves meeting the challenges of her new job, despite the unreasonable demands of her misogynistic boss. But she needs to find the balance between being a woman, wife, mother and hard-charging Vice President. Even a patient man like Matt won’t tolerate her neglect for long.
Set in corporate Canada, The Birdcage is a fast-paced novella that will inspire you, scare you a little, and feed your heart and mind. Perfect for fans of Marian Keyes and Elin Hilderbrand.
