Publisher's Summary
The brilliant new novel from the Queen of Romcom.
Bel’s joined the Manchester office of a big national paper from her award-winning podcast. There’s only three of them – Bel, her relentlessly ambitious colleague Aaron, and the new intern. And when the intern turns out to be a thirty-something man called Connor, she gets off on totally the wrong foot. She’s patronising, he’s hostile. It’s a terrible start.
Then Bel gets a sniff at a really big story, Connor gets caught in the crossfire, and before they know it, they have to convince people they’re a couple – and a couple in love at that. If they mess up, Bel’s cover is blown and the biggest story she’ll ever land will disappear, along with justice for its sources
But as time goes on, who’s double crossing whom – and which feelings are real? It’s Mr & Mrs Smith meets The Hating Game – and sparks will fly …
Critic Reviews
‘She’s so ridiculously talented … consider this recommendation my personal gift to you and your life’ EMILY HENRY
'Flawed and relatable, their dialogue whipsmart…Read this for the famous hero trope, but also for the grounded reality and beautiful narrative voice. McFarlane never misses' GILLIAN MCALLISTER, SCOTTISH DAILY MAIL
'14/10 on the QWJ scale (queasy with jealousy scale). I WISH I'd written it. I loved this book so much' MARIAN KEYES
‘Everything you want from a rom com and satisfyingly knotty with proper, recognisable characters. She just gets better and better’ JOJO MOYES
'Smart, sensitive, extremely funny and always so, so spot on…a joy' LINDSEY KELK
‘No one writes such wry, emotionally complex romantic fiction as Mhairi McFarlane’ RED
