When Fran Cooper accepts a mysterious temporary job as a PA to a celebrity, she is swept off her feet overnight. Working with internationally famous singer Juliette, Fran is the person charged with getting Juliette to the Crystal Ball, the glittering event when the world’s rich and famous gather on Panarea, a beautiful Mediterranean island, for a night like no other.
What Fran doesn’t know is that on this one night, everything will change for her too – that instead of standing on the sidelines, she’ll be putting on the most beautiful dress she’s ever seen and having the most unforgettable night of her life…
Thank you to Harper Collins for my copy of this book via Netgalley. I have been a HUGE Lindsey fan for many years and I was very excited to read this one which was deemed a modern-day Cinderella.
This book is hilarious, romantic and fun. Lindsey’s books are always full of escapism. As well as a lot of hilarity Lindsey also brings in some food for thought as to if we are where we really want to be in life.
Fran Cooper is such a likeable character. I love her and Jess’s relationship. Jess is the best friend we all need in our lives. I also really liked her relationship with Juliette.
I couldn’t stand Fran’s fiance, Stew. From the moment he appeared on the page I wanted him gone. Fran deserves so much more than him!
This is not a cute little romcom but fits more into the women’s fiction category. Yes, there is some romance but it’s much more about a woman taking control of her life and learning to follow her dreams.
Perfect uplifting read that will leave you with a smile on your face!
About Lindsey Kelk
Um, hi! My name is Lindsey, I’m a writer, I live in New York and I’m an interwebs addict. Phew, now I’ve got that off my chest, there’s really not much else to say. I’m from England, specifically ‘up north’, lived in London for seven years then skidaddled to New York. I’ve been here since 2009 and I really don’t particularly want to leave. It’s ever so nice.
I write books, I write articles for magazines, I blog about beauty things, sometimes I put myself in very silly situations and write about that and on the odd occasion, I interview people. I’m much better at talking about myself though. I have been described as an ‘oversharer’. And ‘gobby’. I believe this is endearing.
I love music, movies and TV. I watch WWE. A lot. It’s possible I’m actually a 14-year-old boy who is confused about his sexuality. I’m naturally blonde. The prescription for my right eye is -9.5. I’m never in one place for too long and next year I want to travel lots more. I like cooking, eating and entertaining. And fashion. And yoga. And talking all of the time. I love texting. And karaoke. And Twitter. And football. And obviously, I’m a fan of reading, writing and all things book-related. I hate mosquitoes, small-minded people and pickles. But not pickled onions. I like pickled onions. Hard to get in the states, you know.
