Summary

What happens when an estranged father and son unwittingly fall in love with the same woman?

A hilariously laugh-out-loud romantic comedy, perfect for fans of Something to Live For (Richard Roper), Love, Unscripted (Owen Nicholls), The Love Square (Laura Jane Williams) and Us (David Nicholls).

Out-of-work actor Harriet is recuperating from a crash-and-burn affair with Damian - aka ‘Cockweasel’ - and making ends meet as a barista when she meets two rather lovely men. Tom is a regular at the café, and seems like such a nice guy. Smooth-talking DJ Richard is older, but in great shape - a real silver fox.

Deciding to take a chance on both of them, Harriet doesn’t realise at first that she is actually dating father and son. Tom and Richard aren’t on speaking terms, and don’t share a last name - so how was she to know? By the time everyone finds out, both Tom and Richard are truly madly deeply in love with Harriet, and she’s faced with an impossible choice.

But as the battle for her affections intensifies, ‘Cockweasel’ makes an unexpected reappearance and begs her to give him another chance....

Great concept but poorly delivered

Quite cringe on the whole. Phrases like “f*ck nugget” and “c*ck weasel” are thrown around very often which makes it feel more intended for teen readers. Narration with 3 different actors is great, but generally the language and style or writing was quite disappointing. Story became fantastical and no longer related to the original premise in the last 1/3 which again was jarring. Overall was quite disappointed and would only recommend if you life cringe / unrealistic stories.
