From National Book Award finalist Adele Griffin, an insightful and
warmhearted story of two very different women who make an
unexpected connection when one decides to carry a baby for the
other. At I'll Have Seconds, a high-end fairytale vintage dress
shop in Manhattan, Nora Hammond loves nothing better than pairing a
rare find with the perfect client. At home, Nora grapples with the
bleaker reality of enormous debt, a tiny apartment, and
ever-dwindling hope that she and her husband Jacob will have a
family of their own. When socialite Evelyn Elliot charges into
Nora's life, the women spark an immediate connection, and Nora is
jettisoned into the heady whirl of New York's moneyed elite. As
Evelyn's stylist and confidante, Nora needs to learn all new rules
of engagement for the uber-wealthy. But it isn't until Evelyn
decides her next cause is to carry a baby for Nora, that these
rules- and this unlikely friendship-are tested. A contemporary
story that celebrates alternative routes to family, The Favor is an
incisive examination of what it means to long for a child and what
relationships cost us-and what they're worth.
