Publisher's summary
No question about it, there are two little purple lines. I’m pregnant.
After eight years together, Lil Bailey thought she’d already found ‘the one’ - that is, until he dumped her for a blonde 20-something colleague. So she does what any self-respecting singleton would do: swipes right, puts on her best bra and finds herself on a first date with a handsome mountaineer called Max. What’s the worst that can happen?
Well it’s pretty bad actually. First Max ghosts her and then, after weeing on a stick (but mostly her hands), a few weeks later Lil discovers she’s pregnant. She’s single, 31 and living in a thimble-sized flat in London - it’s hardly the happily ever after she was looking for.
Lil’s ready to do the baby thing on her own - it can’t be that hard, right? But she should probably tell Max, if she can track him down. Surely he’s not that Max, the highly eligible, headline-grabbing son of Lord and Lady Rushbrooke, currently trekking up a mountain in South Asia? Oh, maybe he wasn’t ignoring Lil after all....
Critic reviews
"Howlingly funny." (Sunday Times)

Story
Julia hasn't had sex in three years. Her roommate has a boyfriend - and their sex noises are audible through the walls, maybe even throughout the neighborhood. Not to mention, she's treading water in a dead-end job, her know-it-all therapist gives her advice she doesn't ask for, and the men she is surrounded by are, to be polite, subpar.

Story
Claire Carmichael leads a charmed life. She has two beautiful sons, Jamie and Joshua, and a handsome and successful husband who loves her. Even when she was in school, Claire had it all. She was clever, likeable, and after passing the initiation tests, she was welcomed into the society of popular girls - the Queen Bees. So when a scandal threatened to ruin Claire's reputation, the Queen Bees closed rank to protect her, no matter who else got hurt. Claire may have moved on from her school days, but for one person who she hurt irreparably, those memories are as fresh as blood.

Story
On a beautiful summer night in a charming English suburb, a young woman and her boyfriend disappear after partying at the massive country estate of a new college friend. One year later, a writer moves into a cottage on the edge of the woods that border the same estate. Known locally as the Dark Place, the dense forest is the writer’s favorite place for long walks and it’s on one such walk that she stumbles upon a mysterious note that simply reads, “DIG HERE.”

Story
An achingly funny story from the author of the best-selling You Had Me at Hello. When Edie is caught in a compromising position at her colleagues' wedding, all the blame falls on her - turns out that personal popularity in the office is not that different from your school days. Shamed online and ostracised by everyone she knows, Edie's forced to take an extended sabbatical - ghostwriting an autobiography for hot new acting talent, Elliot Owen. Easy, right? Wrong.

Story
Biddy Weir is a quirky girl. Abandoned by her mother as a baby, and with a father who's not quite equipped for the challenges of modern parenting, Biddy lives in her own little world, happy to pass her time painting by the sea and watching the birds go by. That is, until she meets Alison Flemming. Because there are a few things about Biddy that aren't normal, you see. And Alison isn't afraid to point them out to the world. All of a sudden, Biddy's quiet life is thrown into turmoil. If only there was someone to convince her that, actually, everyone's a little bit weird....

Cute and Fun!
I really enjoyed the story. I’m on the road a lot and I found myself excited to have to drive my car so that I can continue listening to the story. I was also sad when the story came to an end. Not because the author didn’t do a good job with the ending but the very fact that I wouldn’t be able to continue to experience the main character’s life.
Also, I really enjoyed the way that the author narrated the story!

A solid 4 star story
Really enjoyed listening to this story in the car - different from a classic rom com, included more storyline with the best friend rather than the love interest. The ending was abrupt and would love a sequel! Really like this author and hope to see more from her!

A good beach read
I enjoyed this book but I listened at a slower speed as the author was reading too fast for a languid listen.

Great read even for a non Brit
I really enjoyed the story and the characters. I loved Lil and her friends. I also like the narration by the author. Seemed real world. Already looking for another book by this author.
I do wish there was an epilogue. I love when you get a glimpse of how things turn out later.

sweet story even though there is some vivid descriptive language in scenes that detracts from that a bit.

Solid decent book and performance
I thought it was interesting and impressive that the author did the narration. That was one of the reasons I caved and spent a credit on a basic romance. Sophia reading was very good although the audiobook might have been a bit more interesting with a reader that can do voices that distinguish male/female characters
It was thoughtfully written with realistic development of the characters throughout the book. I appreciated that there was humor but it wasn’t the Sophie Kinsella type cringe-inducing kind.

Good Beach Listen
Overall a good chic story. Good have done without the graphic description of the sex scenes and not because I’m a prude but honestly there just wasn’t a need for it.

It was ok. Nothing that held me captivated or surprised. I would catch myself tuning it out as I drove. Yeah, it was OK.

Hilarious, heartwarming and fun!
I just loved this story and the performance was great!! I like a fast pace talker that can deliver humor with timing and charm. I could picture the story as a movie in my head. Can’t wait to find more books by this author!
