About this listen

A laugh-out-loud, forced proximity summer romance from MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER Portia MacIntosh.

Do movie romances ever happen in real life...?

Frankie doesn't believe in true love. As relationships expert at popular magazine Stylife, she has learnt that dating disasters are far more common than happy ever afters.

So when she is tasked to find out if meet cutes can work in real life she is up for the challenge - but whether it's being a damsel in distress with a flat tyre, or spilling coffee over a stranger, she isn't convinced this can really lead to love.

But little does Frankie know that the ultimate meet cute opportunity is just around the corner. As she is whisked off her feet (all in the name of her work project of course...) perhaps true love isn't just for the movies after all...?

Join MILLION-COPY bestseller Portia MacIntosh for a laugh-out-loud, feel-good romantic comedy, guaranteed to whisk you away and put a smile on your face.

Relatable character, who gets herself into scrapes. Light, cute and funny. Bit of a dream-like situation but I enjoy that. Definitely great for anyone who enjoys rom-coms.

Cute and fun!

I love the characters and the main character who is a total screw up. The narrator does the best job! She is perfect for the role and makes you feel like you are part of the story.

Love the story ! I’m listening to it in audible.

This book is hilarious and full of surprises. The two main characters are fun and likeable. Karen Cass's performance immersed me in the story. I will definitely read/listen to another Portia MacIntosh book.

Portia is a brilliant writer. Her books are witty and fun and the characters are realistic. I've listened to two books now and have thoroughly enjoyed each one. The narrator is fantastic and easy to listen to. Highly recommend. I plan on listening to every book.

Brilliant
