Trying to identify a book I saw today that I’ve forgotten. It’s a story where a woman has her head/brain transferred into another woman. I think the author's name is Sue something.

Could this be Second Body by Sue Payer?



This review (which I might add describes the novel as poorly written and offensively sexist on pretty much every level) gives an indication of the blurb;




Wendy Anderson went into hospital to give birth to her second child.
But the procedure goes badly wrong, and she dies on the operating
table. At the same time, the body of Jennifer Bowman is brought into
the same hospital. She had tumbled down a flight of stairs, suffered a
head injury, and has now been pronounced brain-dead. So the doctors
perform a procedure up to that point performed only on animal test
subjects: they transplant Wendy’s head onto Jennifer’s body. The
operation is kept secret from the press for twelve months in order to
give the Anderson family time to adjust. The family also moves south
to Florida and cuts all ties with their friends so that no one learns
of the transplant. Because Wendy, once petite and “doll-like”, a
“cuddle bunny”, now has a voluptuous body more than a foot taller.
