Book Description

29 Sep 2011
What would you do if your boyfriend proposed?

- Say yes and throw your arms around him
- Text everyone with your good news
- Take out a subscription to Brides magazine

Delilah does none of the above. Instead she packs her bags and heads to London in search of a new life, and a new man. Only she meets two. Charlie, the sexy media mogul and Sam, best friend and confidante.

Everything seems perfect. Thrown into a whirlwind of glamorous parties, five-star restaurants and designer penthouses, Delilah couldn't be happier. After all, it's a million miles away from her old life. And her old self. Which is exactly what she wanted.

Isn't it?

Alexandra Potter's hilarious first novel is an enchanting and irresistible story about finding yourself, following your dreams, and how it's not unusual to fall in love. With anyone....

Why, why, Delilah?

Delilah has made a big decision. In fact, she’s made several. She’s leaving Bradford, leaving her boyfriend Lenny, and taking her Tom Jones collection, her pet whippet, Fatso and herself to the bright lights of the big city…

My, my, Delilah…

And now that she’s here, it seems that down-to-earth Delilah is just what the big city was waiting for. But whatever she does, Delilah is determined finally to make the right choices for her future, in love and work.

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect feelgood book 13 Aug 2000
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
I read this on the bus to work in the morning and it really cheered me up. I loved the characters, thought that it was very wittily written, enjoyed the descriptions of London and Notting Hill, and I especially loved the whole Tom Jones theme running through it. It's a simple story of girl meets boy, but the author has used a sharp eye and clever observations to make this romance stand out from all the rest.

4.0 out of 5 stars a brilliant read & very unpredictable 14 Mar 2004
Format:Paperback
I read this book whilst on holiday in Sri Lanka with my best mate. I bought it at the airport, as I was very attracted to the front cover which is bright and bubbly! it was such a good read i have read it a few times as i have had it a couple of years. Is a brilliant book for young women and tells the story of a girl called Delilah who leaves her old home, boyfriend and all sorts! would definatly reccommend this book!

Format:Paperback
I read this book from cover to cover over just 2 nights. After only a few pages, I was hooked!

The book tells the story of Delilah a twenty something fed up with her average life in Bradford, wanting to leave behind all she has ever known and finally start to live! Delilah decides to go to London, on the wild notion that she may meet up with "Charlie" whom she dreams can take her away from everything. However, she doesn't anticipate on meeting the sex-mad Vivienne or wonderful Sam, who take her under their wing.

The characters are so easy to identify with,and Delilah's observations of London life are particularly amusing and so so true! Delilah puts her observations into words which you find yourself identifying with. It is written in such an honest and funny way that you find yourself nodding, agreeing and laughing out loud in so many places. It is this which makes the book so enjoyable. It is the perfect Summer read - take it to the beach, read it on the train - you'll find yourself giggling out loud! It doesn't matter that you find yourself thinking "I know what's going to happen. She's going to fall in love with....! because you may not be right and even if you are, you'll just enjoy reading all about the twists, turns, ups and downs of how Delilah gets there!

I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a great story told with such warmth and humour.
