Review

“Very very witty and funny. Left me in awe…a total gem.” (Marian Keyes)

“The funniest, most romantic book I've read since One Day.” (Lisa Jewell)

“I loved this book. It made me laugh and reminded me that anything's possible in love – and in everything else for that matter.” (Minnie Driver)

“I loved this: an original, genuinely funny, genuinely moving, modern love story.” (Katy Regan)

Product Description

What happens when the one that got away comes back? Find out in this sparkling debut from Mhairi McFarlane.

‘Think of the great duos of history. We're just like them.’
‘You mean like Kylie and Jason? Torvill and Dean? Sonny and Cher?’
‘I think you’ve missed the point, Rachel.’

Rachel and Ben. Ben and Rachel. It was them against the world. Until it all fell apart. It’s been a decade since they last spoke, but when Rachel bumps into Ben one rainy day, the years melt away.

They’d been partners in crime and the best of friends. But life has moved on: Ben is married. Rachel is not. Yet in that split second, Rachel feels the old friendship return. And along with it, the broken heart she’s never been able to mend.

Hilarious, heartbreaking and everything in between, you’ll be hooked from their first ‘hello’.

5.0 out of 5 stars A stunning debut 11 Nov 2012
By JessDay
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
From first line to last I was totally hooked. In a genre often stymied by identikit plots, unrealistic dialogue and twee cupcake making heroines, everything about Mhairi McFarlane's debut is a breath of fresh air. The central premise is engaging, intriguing and always rings true, and in Rachel Woodford she has created one of the best leading ladies in recent memory: sharp, witty, sometimes flawed, but always totally lovable and believable. Add to this a brilliant supporting cast of friends and colleagues, all with their own stories to tell and this is one of the most satisfying reads around - a terrific ensemble piece as well as a thrilling central romance, it has a depth of plot, character and storytelling rare for the genre. Mhairi's wonderful turn of phrase, acute ear for dialogue and ribald sense of humour will guarantee you at least five embarrassing public snort lols per page, and I can make no higher recommendation than that. A total joy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant, hilarious and touching 14 Nov 2012
By C. Day
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a fantastic book. The relationships feel true to life, the characters are convincing, the plot whips along and it is truly, hysterically funny. I can't wait to read it again and pick out some of the best one-liners for use in everyday life. You completely fall for Rachel and Ben, who are both brilliant, and feel like your best friends by the time you've finished reading. Will be a Christmas present for plenty of friends- I can't recommend it enough.

I have to begin by saying that this is not a storyline which will shock in any way. However, what it lacked in unpredictability it made up for with such witty prose that I found... Read more
