Crash Into Me




An addictive new love story from the author behind the hit film and novel The Idea of You

Relocating from Paris to LA for her husband’s work, two children in tow, wasn’t Cecilia’s choice. But she finds there’s more at stake than her husband’s career when she collides with Anouk Ferrand.

The women last met in Mexico, 1996. Cecilia was a photographer’s assistant; Anouk an unknown model. This was shoot that made her name.

Cecilia doesn’t know if Anouk remembers those wild days on the coast. But Cecilia has never forgotten.

And as the spark reignites between then, Cecilia must confront everything she knows about desire, devotion, and the life she has built.

I'm madly in love with this novel

Curtis Sittenfeld

An illicit romance. The sins of the fashion world. A mysterious past. With Crash Into Me, Robinne Lee weaves a sensual, captivating story that’s so deliciously propulsive, I pushed "pause" on my entire life to read it. Such elegant writing! Robinne Lee has created magic, once again

Tia Williams, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Missed Connection</i>

I absolutely loved this beautifully written book which mixes thoughts about race, class, beauty, art and relationships with an edge of your seat story about love, betrayal, secrets, and learning to inhabit your own self. It felt like a book for grown ups - thought-provoking and compelling. Robinne Lee effortlessly creates layers that draw you in while also giving an insight into the worlds of Hollywood, French cinema, art exhibitions and modelling, all set against the context of an era in which society is facing some uncomfortable truths. I was gripped

Ellie Levenson, author of <i>Room 706</i>

I didn't think I'd love any book as much as The Idea of You, but this is a devastatingly good follow-up. Rarely does a novel move with such intoxicating confidence - at once sensual and sharp, every sentence gliding with purpose. The language shimmers, the pace refuses to loosen its grip. A gorgeously written, utterly propulsive read.
