About the Book

Everything's Fine

On Jess’ first day at Goldman Sachs, she’s less than thrilled to learn she’ll be on the same team as Josh, her white, conservative sparring partner from college. Josh loves playing the devil’s advocate and is just…the worst.

But when Jess finds herself the sole Black woman on the floor, overlooked and underestimated, it’s Josh who shows up for her in surprising --- if imperfect --- ways. Before long, an unlikely friendship --- one tinged with undeniable chemistry --- forms between the two. A friendship that gradually, and then suddenly, turns into an electrifying romance that shocks them both.

Despite their differences, the force of their attraction propels the relationship forward, and Jess begins to question if it’s more important to be happy than right. But then it’s 2016, and the cultural and political landscape shifts underneath them. And Jess, who is just beginning to discover who she is and who she has the right to be, is forced to ask herself what she’s willing to compromise for love and if, in fact, everything’s fine.

A stunning debut that introduces Cecilia Rabess as a blazing new talent, EVERYTHING'S FINE is a poignant and sharp novel that doesn’t just ask will they, but…should they?
