Trapped between the suffocation of English boarding school and a
chaotic homelife dominated by her eccentric mother, Ari longs for a
different kind of life - one lived in the glamour of London, with
the pop stars and fashion icons she adores. It seems impossible
until she is discovered by Bill Ramsey - the notorious bad boy
photographer of the Swinging Sixties set. Suddenly, Ari's life is
transformed into a dizzying whirlwind of drugs, photoshoots, and
parties, all with the famous Ramsey by her side. The young couple
are the darlings of the media. But in the fickle world of fashion,
nothing lasts forever - and Ari's addiction, her eating disorder
and her increasingly dysfunctional relationship with Ramsey send
her life spinning out of control. A Vogue cover shoot in Nepal
offers Ari a make-or-break chance - not just to revive her ailing
career, but to win back Ramsey's love, the only thing that matters
to her. But in the captivating surroundings, Ari finds herself
wondering how much more of herself she must lose to keep the things
she always thought she wanted. An honest and strikingly moving
exploration of what we will sacrifice for love, amid a
richly-detailed setting of 1960s London's fashion scene. Piece Of
My Heart is a coming-of-age story with a difference that will
appeal to readers of Marian Keyes's Rachel's Holiday and Daisy
Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins-Reid.
