‘Joyful and romantic!’ Cosmopolitan

‘Fresh, funny and smart’ Beth O’Leary, bestselling author of The Flatshare

She’s single. But it can still be complicated…

Penny Bridge has always been unlucky in love.

So she can’t believe it when she meets a remarkable new man.

Followed by another.

And then another…

And all of them want to date her.

Penny has to choose between three. But are any of them The One?

The bestselling author of Our Stop will have you laughing, crying and cheering Penny on in this funny and feel-good exploration of hope, romance and the trust it takes to finally fall in love. Perfect for fans of Mhairi McFarlane’s If I Never Met You and Beth O’Leary’s The Flatshare.

What the critics say

"Joyful and romantic...tailor-made for summer!" (Cosmopolitan)

"Fresh, funny and smart." (Beth O’Leary, best-selling author of The Flatshare)

"Charming and full of warmth. I loved Penny (and her hair), and laughed a lot at her misadventures. This is the book equivalent of a big hug." (Sophia Money-Coutts, best-selling author of The Plus One)

"You are the least traditional woman I know" (the male love interest to the protagonist). HA! She is one of most conventional characters I've read in this genre. Other than doing IVF (itself not exactly the epitome of critiquing norms since her decision is driven by her feeling she needs to be a mother), she does so much conventional stuff it's nauseating, especially accepting the half or non-apologies of men when they slut shame her, act totally self-centered, and otherwise treat her badly. I kept reading mostly because the book was so cheap and because the protagonist seemed to have some moments of awareness of the sexist and selfish behavior of said men, and I kept waiting for her to stand up, but she never did. And the whole way her and the male love interest's relationship starts is kind of creepy and makes them seem like they're elderly or something. Ugh. Also very white and pretty classist. Anyway, running screaming back towards one of my favorites, like Mhairi Mcfarlane (her characters aren't "perfect," but are perfect for that reason).

UGH and ARGH!!
