By Chris Manby
Below average story from Chris Manby – didn’t enjoy it much :o( Deals with Lara, who seems to stick up with everything that Hugh, her rich new “boyfriend”, does to her…
Review from amazon.co.uk:
A poignant yet hilarious tale of unrequited love from bestselling Manby, reissued in fresh packaging for a wide new readership. Dashing, dishy and utterly uninterested. No one else can compete. Lara Fenton is all washed up. Single at 25, she’s desperate to find a man, especially since her best friend Julie got engaged. Salvation arrives in the divine form of Hugh Armstrong-Hamilton. Yes, Hugh has his faults, but who doesn’t? So what if he never picks up the bill? Big deal if he cancels dates at the last moment. And who cares about a few insults from his snooty friends? Hugh is a god – her god, and any other man would seem like second prize in comparison. Or would they…?
