Description of book
The unputdownable, brilliant new novel from the Queen of Romcom.Bel’s joined the tiny Manchester office of a national paper from her indie podcast.
Thirty-something Connor is going to back to the start as the new intern.
The latest office news? They can’t stand each other.
So of course Bel bumps into Connor when she’s working undercover on the biggest scoop of her career. And of course she’s forced to improvise, pretending they’re a couple. A couple deeply in love.
Two rivals. One fake romance. The headline writes itself…

It took me a while to get into the book, the beginning being so full of new characters that I had to re-listen several times. But then it became quite heart warming. Sometimes the plot seems a bit farfetched. I had some difficulty figuring out who was talking in the dialogues, because the speaker, otherwise very pleasant, wouldn’t discern the voices very much. All in all very entertaining.

Ja, för mig är Mhairi McFarlane den bästa i sin genre. Boken har en bra story, och är skriven med mycket humor, ett autentiskt persongalleri och en sympatisk slagfärdighet!

Delvis förutsägbar, men det finns flera historiedrivande trådar och hyggligt komplexa personlighetsbeskrivningar som behåller intresset och därför perfekt när man är ute efter lättsam feelgood. Jag zoomade aldrig ut eller blev irriterad, vilket är ovanligt när jag lyssnar på den här genren. Bra uppläsare som kan konsten att göra subtila justeringar i tonfall och dialekt så att det är lätt att hänga med i vem som talar, utan att det låter tillgjort.

I enjoyed listening to it, but I have other favorites of the author. I had a hard time distinguishing the different voices and was not always sure who was speaking. But overall a solid book.
