This is the story of Laurie whose boyfriend of 18 years decides he no longer wants to be in a relationship. Cue Laurie getting stuck in a lift at work with the office bad boy. He needs to clean up his image to make partner and she needs a love interest to make her ex jealous...

I requested this book because I really enjoyed the witty humour in McFarlane's pervious book, 'Don't you forget about me'. I found this ebook slower to get into and there wasn't as many sarcastic or laugh-out-loud funny snips but it was still an enjoyable read.

I loved that the lead character had strong female friendships and loved the slow build up of the romance that seem obvious to everyone but Laurie. I also liked that Jamie was a nice guy all along and not changed to be a nice guy because he met Laurie as it felt so much more realistic.
