'I lost count of the number of times I laughed out loud, I was rooting for Laura from the first page. Tender, funny, smart and brilliantly observed. The perfect blend of uplifting escapism and social satire, an utter page turner and such a clever, perceptive moving one. I LOVED it!' DAISY BUCHANAN
________________
Laura Morrison's love life is far from perfect...
...In fact, she's all but given up on finding The One.
But then she gets the chance to trial a new dating service that will draw on everything she's ever done online to find her perfect match, and figures it's got to be worth a try.
Laura can't believe her luck when good-looking, kind, considerate Adam turns up for their first date. On paper he's...well...perfect.
Only now she's developing feelings for the person who led her to her "match" in the first place. Should she trust her instincts when it comes to who might really be Mr Right, even if it means proving the formula wrong?
Sharply-observed and laugh-out-loud funny, NO SUCH THING AS PERFECT is the perfect novel for anyone who has ever wondered if there's a formula for finding love.
