Official synopsis Publisher
“A must-read for all romcom lovers.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This uplifting, grumpy-meets-sunshine romance is a standalone story and part of The Love in the Comptons collection.
Lucinda Green knows something is missing from her life. But what? Her catering business is enjoying modest success and she loves her cosy house, even if she does have to share it with her irritating ex-fiancé.
Whatever’s making her unsettled and edgy, Lucinda’s certain that a lack of romance isn’t the problem. How could it be when she doesn’t believe in true love?
But Lucinda’s beliefs are shaken by a series of electric encounters with Alex Fraser, a newly notorious actor who gradually proves himself to be infuriatingly funny and smart, as well as handsome.
Not that any of that matters. Because Lucinda doesn’t believe in all that ‘The One’ nonsense. That’s the rule.
But doesn’t every rule have an exception? This sweet, slow-burn romance is perfect for fans of Cathy Bramley, Jill Mansell, Trisha Ashley and Kathryn Freeman. Book Two in the Love in the Comptons series. These are standalone stories and can be read in any order.
