Delia Moss isn’t quite sure where she went wrong.

When she proposed and discovered her boyfriend was sleeping with someone else – she thought it was her fault.

When she realised life would never be the same again – she thought it was her fault.

And when he wanted her back like nothing had changed – Delia started to wonder if perhaps she was not to blame…

From Newcastle to London and back again, with dodgy jobs, eccentric bosses and annoyingly handsome journalists thrown in, Delia must find out where her old self went – and if she can ever get her back.

Upfront: big fan of the author.
This book: not the author's best by far. It follows awkward plotting that abandons some of the lead character's more engaging traits 2/3 of the way through. It left me wondering why the author did not persue the strands of the lead's personality that made her seem unique earlier in the book. In all, this book lacks the depth of character that makes many of her books stand out from the British rom com crowd. I also found the narrator annoying. Her voicing throughout lacked emotion. In particular, it made the lead sound like an early twenty something rather than a more mature thirty something. Perhaps my overall lack of enthusiasm for this book reflects how much the author has grown and improved! This appears to have been the second book she published.
