Relationship Status

By Amy Wilson

Kate and Dan have been together since university.

They own a house and a dog – and lead a very normal life.

So why do 857,253 people feel moved to comment on their wedding pictures when they post them online?

The answer: $100 billion.

That’s the value of Connected, the website the pictures and comments were posted on. Dan created it – and it has made him one of the world’s richest men. It has become the place where the world communicates.

But what happens to your own ambitions when the ordinary undergraduate you started dating turns into a billionaire?

And what happens to your marriage when your husband finds himself at the centre of a privacy scandal involving naked royals? And the paparazzi are following your every move?

Kate is about to find out.

As ‘Connected’ crashes, she finds that the status of a relationship can change faster than you think – and in ways you never expected.

And the person she most wants to connect with isn’t there any more.

‘Relationship Status’ is a smart and sassy story about love, commitment and technology. It is perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Jane Green….and Wired.
