Summary

At 28, Lucy is doing well for herself. She's got a great job, her boss loves her, and her friends think she's great. The only problem is she does feel the need to lie outrageously on dates - often with hilarious results.

But when Lucy decides that her flatmate and oldest friend, Henry, is in need of a makeover, nothing can prepare them for the surprise results! Before long, Lucy realises that their lives will never be the same again.

Lovely Listen

I have listened to nearly all Jane Costello 's books & they feel like putting on a comfy pair of new fluffy socks. I look forward to knowing it will be a lovely listen.
I enjoyed the story & the narrator, so I would recommend it.

Although I don't think Jane Costello knows that Marilyn Manson is an actual man.

Predictable

Like all this kind of stories you know already how it ends. The bits and bobs in between where alright. The performance was very good though.

Funny, heart warming and a true romance

Absolutely loved this book. Really light hearted and a joy to listen to. Funny, entertaining and the storyline is easy to follow but keeps you gripped.

Very predictable

Performance was great. Story not so good. It’s very predictable and was nothing new or exciting. But I kept listening so I guess that means something.

A story for my 16-25 year old self. Loved it.

Spend some time and listen to this mini escape. The narrator is one of the best I've heard in a while. Good listen for those on the go days.
