There have been some requests for discussion guides, so I’m slowly adding them onto this site and they will be filed under the “Reader Group Discussion Guide” category on my blog. If you are a librarian, bookseller or reader group leader and are using these guides, please let me know. Thanks! ~ Susanna Carr
1. Every year Katie Kramer makes the same New Year’s resolution to have a wild affair with Ryder Scott. Do you make New Year’s resolutions? Why or why not?
2. Katie believes she could be a powerful woman when she protected her relationships. Is making sacrifices for a relationship a sign of power or a sign of weakness?
3. Katie transforms herself by following all the advice in women’s magazines. If you had to follow every tip in one women’s magazine, which publication would you choose? Oprah? Cosmopolitan? Martha Stewart?
4. Ryder thinks Katie is too innocent for him. Is he really out of her league when it comes to sex, or is his opinion based on the girl she was years ago?
5. Katie’s friends believe that the level of her self-confidence can be measured by the height of the heels she’s wearing. What do you think your shoes say about you?
6. Katie is shameless when she goes after Ryder. Darwin can be very persistent when he wants to gain Katie’s attention. How is Darwin different than Katie?
7. Has Katie truly reinvented herself or is she pretending to be a bad girl?
8. Do you think Katie went too far to get Ryder in her bed? How far have you gone to get the man you wanted? Was it worth it?
