A Passionate Love Affair with a Total Stranger

Author:Lucy Robinson

Sometimes you fall in love when you least expect it . . .

Charley has worked hard to create a perfect life - she has The Flat. The Job. The Wardrobe.

Best of all, her boss has asked her out after seven years' hard flirting and a covert fumble in a mop cupboard.

But then she breaks her leg in three places, watches her boss propose to someone else and is forced to hand over her job to her nasty deputy. Workaholic Charley thinks she will soon go mad.

Dangerously bored and desperate for something to do, she discovers a talent for helping people who are talentless at internet dating.

Then William arrives in her inbox and rocks her world. Helpless, she watches herself fall in love with him and discovers that perhaps she't not exactly who she thought she was.

But is she brave enough to turn her back on her old life? And for a total stranger?

Fans of Marian Keyes, Rosie Walsh and Sophie Kinsella will love this hilariously funny and gorgeously romantic story.
