About This Book

You don't know what you're looking for until you find it.

Edi Parcell thought she had life all planned out, so when her childhood sweetheart proposes a three-month break to date other people, she's shocked. Unexpectedly back on the dating scene after years with the same guy, this is the first opportunity Edi's had to think about what she really wants from life – and love.

From disastrous first dates to meet-cutes at museums, Edi is soon on a voyage of self-discovery – and she has her best friends on hand to help with everything from deciphering WhatsApps to deciding whether that cute woman in the art gallery really was flirting with her. When the break is over, will Edi even want her old relationship back?

A funny and uplifting read about friendship, failed relationships and falling in love when you least expect it, perfect for fans of Lucy Vine and Mhairi McFarlane!
