Format:Paperback
I bought this book along with Snap Happy and French Realtions seeing as it was its sequel, and I am glad I did! Brilliant and witty, I was sucked in from the very beginning. Although most enjoyable when read after reading French Relations, it is one of the most entertaining books I've read in ages. The return of Hugo was amazing, he has a very Mr. Darcy quality about him, but with more shows of vulnerability. Tash was a funny heroine, very easy to sympathise with. I found myself laughing out loud whilst reading it, to which i got some very odd looks. Excellent read, very well written, and one of my favourite books by Ms. Walker. If only i had a Hugo! Keep them coming Fiona!

I am now reading this book for the 4th time and i still can't put it down. Fiona Walker is a brill author (i have read all her books) but well groomed i would say is the best. the hugo/niall/tash triangle is one that i can read and read again a fantastic escapist read.

Format:Paperback
I read this book having read french relations and I have to say that I was gripped from the first page! Very funny at times with a fantastic romance underneath. I only wish that there was a Hugo out there for everyone...
Please please please can we have another book with the old characters in, the latest books havent been half as much fun to read!
