I loved this book as it has a great flow to it and the characters were easy to get to know. The story seemed a bit unrealistic in some senses, like the fact that a consulate was trying to get buyers for products, but all in all, the story was classic chick lit.
The main character has a lot of problems which is something that is classic to the chick lit genre and central to this story. I did enjoy how quickly I was able to get into the story and identify with Holly.
Looking forward to reading more from this author!
I
was born in Liverpool, England to parents who had a strong sense of
adventure and moved many times. I’ve lived in Canada, the United
States, England and New Zealand. I’ve worked in a variety of jobs
ranging from envelope stuffer to bakery assistant, librarian to trade
development executive, but none of my jobs were as much fun as the one
that allowed me to write and get paid for it. That was a few years ago,
and each year it’s become more and more apparent what I want to do is
write full time, a dream that first occurred to me at seventeen.
I
write chick lit – light hearted and humorous stories for and about
women who value their families, their friendships, their careers, their
independence, who have a sense of adventure, and who live and love with
passion.
Like
my characters, I love my family and friends, beautiful shoes, anything
sparkly, the ‘occasional’ drink, parties, and a good belly laugh. I’m
addicted to shopping, chocolate, bubble bath and anything else that
smells nice, and the sort of tv programmes you’d never publicly admit to
watching.
I
live in a lovingly renovated home overlooking Auckland’s beautiful
Waitemata Harbour, with my trusted friends Bronson Boxer and Dolce
Dane. They keep me fit and exercised, scare the burglars away, sit
loyally by my side throughout my late night writing sessions, and hang
on my every word when I read final drafts aloud. They truly are my
biggest fans, and I theirs!
I
love my life, but not so much that there’s not room to live a load of
other lives, through the hearts and minds of my characters, all of whom I
adore, and some of whom I’m fortunate enough to call friend.
