Seriously, why do guys on dating apps think I want a picture of what’s in their pants? I could open an art gallery with the collection I’ve got. Zoe really doesn’t want to die alone and surrounded by cats. But it’s not looking good: she’s had sex precisely twice in the last year, and her feline friend isn’t the kind of male company she wants in bed.

I thought I was sorted on the life front. I was a heart surgeon with a loving partner and two gorgeous little girls. Except my husband’s version of "loving" is lying, cheating, and sleeping his way around London. Which means I definitely deserve a refund. Unfortunately, moving on isn’t that simple. Just because I know how to operate on a heart doesn’t mean I know how to fix my broken one. Plus, I lost the receipt for him years ago, so I’m definitely getting shortchanged. But now that I’m single, am I ready to mingle?

Her blue-eyed boyfriend, Joe, gives her butterflies, makes her bacon sandwiches when she’s hungover and doesn’t have a nickname for any of his body parts. She should have known it was too good to be true. Because one day, Alice and Joe bump into Zoe. According to him, Zoe’s ‘just an old friend’. But Alice saw the way they froze and heard the strange note in Joe’s voice when he said her name.

Summary
What if your plus one could be the one?
Cara has officially run out of men. Her most recent dates have gone from bad to worse, and when her dating app informs her there is no one left in her area to choose from, she is at a dead end.
But with a summer of events ahead of her, she needs to find a solution, fast; someone to keep her company at the never-ending weddings, family gatherings and gender-reveal parties that she can’t face going to alone. So when she meets handsome, confident, Millsy on a night out, she may be in luck. They could not be more different in personality, but he, too, has a summer of events ahead and is desperate to get his family off his back about finding a ‘nice girl’. What if they made a pact to help each other out and be a plus one for the summer? Just as friends of course?
A brand-new romantic comedy from best seller Portia MacIntosh, perfect for fans of Zara Stoneley, Sophie Ranald and Mhairi McFarlane.

Nope. Nope. Nope
I’m the first to admit I love a nonsense fluffy romcom but this was just beyond me. Maybe I’m getting old but any book that constantly uses ‘on brand’ or ‘woke’ isn’t for me. Turned off before I heard the dreaded ‘levelling up’ 😱😱

Boring
Well written, light-hearted romantic fiction that I struggled to finish. I appear to be in the minority judging by the other reviews on here but the story and characters were simply too flat and, quite frankly, boring. Go read One Day in December (Josie Silver) or The One Plus One (Jo Jo Moyes) if you want a three dimensional experience and characters that leap off the page.

I couldn't figure out what I loved so much about it, but then it hit me. No breathless whispers, no throbbing body parts. It was like listening to a good friend tell hilarious stories about their life. Easy to connect with and enjoy. The voice performance was perfect too.

I can't emphasize how much I loved this book .. it was cute and filled with heart warming moments, definitely will check out more of this author
The narrator was simply AMAZING !! .. she is excellent in every sense of the word so glad she was chosen for this book because they are a perfect match :D
