E: 18/07/07 A Hopeless romantic book

A HOPELESS ROMANTIC - HARRIET EVANS - ENTER HERE

Laura was a hopelessly hopeful romantic. Cupid's arrow was always just around the corner and the look of love was forever pasted across her face. But there are only so many disastrous relationships a girl can take; the budding theatre director (gay), the romantic poet (psychopath turned SAS recruit), the passionate Colombian (illegal immigrant) all failed to be her Prince Charming, Mr Right, or even, let's face it, normal.

ahopelessromanticmain.jpgAfter her latest entanglement ends particularly horribly, Laura looks to escape her broken hearted existence by going on holiday. Unfortunately, it ends up being with her parents and grandmother armed with a jam-packed itinerary of visits to National Trust properties and Norfolk craft shops.

Distraction appears in the form of Nick, the prickly but sexy estate manager at Chartley Hall. They have good banter, witty repartee (well, it makes them laugh) and a chemistry which would definitely earn an A grade but do they have any kind of future? Or will Laura be forever cursed with a talent for picking the losers in love?

Praise for GOING HOME:
'enchanting' Jilly Cooper
'extremely entertaining...as cosy and British as a Richard Curtis film' Heat
' a great rom com packed with intrigue and suspense' New Woman
'a witty first novel that zips along' Woman and Home
'fabulous...I loved it. Sophie Kinsella
