"Crazy, Stupid, Love meets Notting Hill. About an actress making it big and the complicated relationship she has with the guy she met as a teenager. You'll read it in two days." --The Skimm

“Crazy, Stupid, Love meets Notting Hill. About an actress making it big and the complicated relationship she has with the guy she met as a teenager. You’ll read it in two days” —The Skimm
 
Their meeting in a parking lot outside a high school football game was both completely forgettable and utterly life-changing. Because no matter how you look at it, it is piss-poor luck to meet the love of your life before your life has even started. Fierce and ambitious, Alison transforms into a rising TV star in New York City while her first love, Kyle, all heart and spiritual yearning, becomes a pediatrician in suburban Cincinnati, married to the wrong woman. What could these mismatched souls have to do with each other? Everything and nothing. Even as their fates rocket them forward and apart, neither can fully let go of the past.

As their lives inevitably intersect, Alison and Kyle must face each other in the revealing light of their decisions. I’m Glad About You is a glittering study of how far the compromises two people make will take them from the lives they were meant to live.

Praise for I'm Glad About You

"Rebeck's take of two star-crossed Midwesterners passed my screen test with flying colors. . . . I found myself more invested in [Alison and Kyle] than I've been in any thwarted couple since Ross and Rachel dominated Thursday nights. . . . People will be talking about this one. Remember, you heard it here first." --Elisabeth Egan, The New York Times Book Review

"This tale of thwarted former high school sweethearts is a pleasurable blur of inside dish, major erotic energy and refreshing realism about love and destiny." --People

"Bombshells, assemble: The Smash creator is once again training her shrewd spotlight on the inner workings of the entertainment industry, introducing a new can't-help-but-cheer-for-her ingénue. . . . [A] smart, heartfelt tale about the price of our dreams--and whether they're ultimately worth it." --Entertainment Weekly

"How is this not a blockbuster? . . . [O]ne of the sharpest, funniest, swerviest novels of the year. . . . Rebeck masterfully moves the characters along cliché-free trajectories that actually resemble life itself." --New York Post

"[This] unputdownable novel pairs the competing fates of two former lovers . . . both defined by their inability to forget the other." --Vogue.com
