ReviewsPraise for When Katie Met Cassidy "Katie and Cassidy are a joy to behold: two whip-smart women grappling with desire and questioning their deeply held notions of love and intimacy. Perri's book is a real gift -- tender, sexy as hell and laugh out loud funny." --Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney, New York Times bestselling author of The Nest " When Katie Met Cassidy is a rom-com.

Synopsis"A film-ready rom-com about finding love when you least expect it."-- Elle "My favorite romantic book of recent memory." --Emma Straub "The delightful, sexy, queer rom-com of the summer . . . with] all the makings of a Nora Ephron classic." -- Vogue *One of NPR's Best Books of 2018* *One of Washington Post's 50 Notable Works of Fiction in 2018* From the acclaimed author of The Assistants comes another gutsy book about two women who find their lives turned upside down by their unexpected chemistry. When it comes to Cassidy, Katie can't think straight. Katie Daniels, a twenty-eight-year-old Kentucky transplant with a strong set of traditional values, has just been dumped by her fianc when she finds herself seated across a negotiating table from native New Yorker Cassidy Price, a sexy, self-assured woman wearing a man's suit. At first neither of them knows what to make of the other, but soon their undeniable connection will bring into question everything each of them thought they knew about sex and love. When Katie Met Cassidy is a romantic comedy about gender and sexuality, and the importance of figuring out who we are in order to go after what we truly want. It's also a portrait of a high-drama subculture where barrooms may as well be bedrooms, and loyal friends fill in the spaces absent families leave behind. Katie's glimpse into this wild yet fiercely tightknit community begins to alter not only how she sees the larger world, but also where exactly she fits in., A gutsy book about the importance of women taking control of their sexuality and finding pleasure and love where they least expect it., Katie is living the New York dream. She's engaged to a charming art curator, has successfully made her way up the ladder at a multinational law firm, and has a hold on apartments in Soho and the West Village. She has come a long way from her Kentucky upbringing. But the rug is swept from under Katie when she is suddenly dumped leaving her completely lost. On a whim, she agrees to have a drink with Cassidy Price - a self-assured, sexually promiscuous woman she meets at work. The two form a newfound friendship, which soon brings into question everything Katie thought she knew about sex - and love.
