Seven years into her second marriage, Kate Nason discovered her husband was cheating on her. Then, the unimaginable happened. Kate woke to the news that one of her husband's "other women" was involved with an American president. It was January of 1998. The press surrounded her home, clamoring for details and transformed Kate's private heartbreak into public humiliation.

Nason's memoir uncovers the little-known side of a well-known story, unveiling a cautionary tale about the ways we deceive ourselves when we allow ourselves to be deceived by those we love. Everything Is Perfect is an intimate reveal of infidelity, gaslighting, and the silent wife at the press conference. Nason explores the roles women inhabit throughout their lives, how they carry trauma, and the lengths they'll go to protect their children and save themselves. It's a fierce and often funny self-reckoning, a meditation on learning to trust one's intuition, and a case study of how one woman undid a bad "I do."

In the tradition of Lisa Brennan Jobs' Small Fry or Chanel Miller's Know My Name, Everything Is Perfect is a beautifully written, deeply personal, unsparing self-portrait that goes deeper than the familiar news story within.
