“Sophie’s husband Dan left her for a younger woman, and now he has canceled his Coachella trip with their 15-year-old daughter.
‘Sophie picks up the pieces and braves the crowds and heat of the desert. There she meets 24-year-old Hayes Campbell, the lead singer of the world’s most popular boy band, August Moon.’
The book, released in 2017, has been called a ‘sleeper hit’ by many Fashion and sales have increased every year since its release.
The novel also saw a 20% increase in sales in 2019.

“This should never have been a book about Harry Styles,” Robinne told the fashion magazine in 2020.
“It was supposed to be a story about a woman approaching her 40s reclaiming her sexuality and rediscovering herself, just at the point where society traditionally writes off women as desirable, viable and whole.”
While Styles may have sparked the book idea, Robinne used multiple sources to build Hayes.
“Inspired is a strong word,” Lee said after being asked if Harry was the inspiration behind the book.

Robinne said the idea came to her during a late-night search on YouTube.
“A few years ago my husband was on a business trip and I was up late surfing music videos on YouTube when I came across the face of a guy I’d never seen in a band I’d never paid attention to, and it was so aesthetically perfect that it took me by surprise. It was like… art,” she said in 2017 interview with blogger Deborah Kalb.
“I spent a good hour googling trying to figure out who this guy was, and in the process I discovered that he often dated older women, and that’s how the seed was planted.”
