Publisher's summary

Margaret loves her job, writing important stories about the impact of government decisions on day-to-day lives for a respected newspaper in Johannesburg. There’s only one problem: her co-worker, Jagger Villain. Is that even his real name? She often wonders. Jagger spends his days writing fluff pieces on everything from the worst-rated barber to speed dating to male sex toys. To make matters worse, they share a cubicle and a desk. She needs a vacation!

Thankfully the upcoming company quiz night has the perfect first prize: a deluxe trip to a resort in Zanzibar. It will be the perfect escape for Margaret and her mother after a difficult year. Margaret’s never met a quiz night she can’t win, but then she’s never competed against Jagger. That’s when the unthinkable happens. They tie. They both win. They both get to go to Zanzibar. At least she has her mother with her to help her avoid Jagger and whomever he brings. However, Jagger’s plus one isn’t what she expected. It’s not some girl of the moment; it's his father, which shakes up her opinion of him...at least a bit. That’s when the entire situation goes from farce to horror show: their parents fall in love and decide to get married.

Suddenly Margaret and Jagger go from co-workers who dislike each other (but also accidentally had sex one night) to step-siblings who dislike each other (but also accidentally had sex one night!). But maybe they don’t dislike each other as much as they initially thought they did?

Thoroughly Enjoyed

I am a big Jo Watson fan. This is the first audio book I’ve listened to by her and I thoroughly enjoyed it. My only complaint is that the narrator makes Margaret (the main character) sound older than I think she is. But then Margaret is a bit on the stuffy side sooooo. . . This romantic comedy had me smiling, giggling, and laughing out loud. There are also thoughtful and reflective moments where your heart melts. So glad I preordered this one!
