Book Overview

Lose yourself in the twists and turns of love in the hilarious romantic comedy from the bestselling author of A Cornish Summer

Finding true love's a piece of cake - as long as you're looking for someone else's true love . . .

Polly McLaren is young, scatty and impossibly romantic. She works for an arrogant and demanding boss, and has a gorgeous if never-there-when-you-need-him boyfriend. But the day a handsome stranger recognises her old school scarf, her life is knocked completely off kilter.

Adam is American, new to the country and begs Polly's help in finding his missing fianc . Over dinner at the Savoy, she agrees - the girls of St Gertrude's look out for one another. However, the old-girl network turns out to be a spider's web of complications and deceit in which everyone and everything Polly cares about is soon hopelessly entangled.

The course of true love never did run smooth. But no one said anything about ruining your life over it. And it's not even Polly's true love . . .

brilliant

Polly is your typical girl that has at least one thing you can relate to with her. She's in a job she doesn't like, a relationship in which she struggles to get her significant other to be around more. So when a strange American approaches her to help find his fiance she is pushed by her 'boyfriend' to invest some energy into it. She finds herself caught in the situation that has more in store then you can imagine. We follow Polly through a whirl-wind of twists and turns and have the chance to see well into her mind. Right when you think you know which way Alliott is going to go with the characters she sends you spinning in another direction. It's a page-turner in all impications of the term.
