Established writer, Rebecca Farnworth brings us a fun, glamorous and romantic novel about a young woman's search for love

The funny thing about love is that just when you think you've got it sorted, it turns round and bites you on the behind.

Which is exactly what's happened to Carmen Miller.

Her ex husband's girlfriend is pregnant, her career as a comedy agent is going down the pan, she's made a fool of herself with fellow agent Will Hunter, a man she's fancied for ages, and to cap it all she has to move out of her flat. Surely things can't get any worse.

Moving down to Brighton to write the TV comedy series that she's always dreamed about, Carmen meets the divine Daniel. A man so gorgeous, she doesn't even mind that he's got long hair. It seems that Carmen's life is on the up again.

Until, that is... love bites again.

Looks like Carmen's back where she started. But could it be that love isn't the problem? Maybe she's just been choosing the wrong men.

heat

This is one of the best light reads I've come across for a very long time, and a must read for holiday or just day to day escapism. It's laced with genuine laugh out loud moments...The story is compelling, light but also with a slightly melancholy underbelly creating an engagement with the reader that surpassed my expectations and made this one of my top summer reads of 2010 so far

Angie Greaves' Book Club, Magic FM

A well written book with much humour concerning a topic that most women will easily identify with

The bookbag.co.uk

I loved this.

Natasha Harding, Sun

Farnworth's second novel...is even more accomplished and funny than her wonderfully warm debut. She's a master at both plot and character

Daily Mirror

Farnworth tackles some heavy subjects while throwing in sharp humour and believable relationships to make this the perfect read for women who like it real and riotous.

Daily Record

Very witty with some fabulous one-liners, beautifully well-written and emotionally insightful - definitely worth a read
