Thank you Netgalley and Avon books for a copy of this book.
Lana Green is a bestselling author of a book about her relationship with Mark. When Mark dumps her. She is left broke and can’t afford the flat she is living in. She meets Jack Buchanan and Nancy Ellis Hall and her life changed for ever. Jack is her pretend boyfriend so she can get her mojo back so, she can write her next book. In the meantime, she takes a job as a lecturer at the literary society for upcoming authors.
She moves in with Nancy Ellis Hall to get inspiration and to be her Carer, as Nancy has dementia and to keep her from going into a care home. Jack is Nancy’s Step son.
I was really enjoyed this story and I loved he character of Nancy How eccentric she was. But, when old flame Mark came back into Lana’s life I thought that the story lost its way and I thought I was reading a completely different book. 3 stars from me.

Review: I would like to thank Avon for letting me review this book and for sending me a book in the post. This book first off looks amazing the cover is great and secondly sounds amazing from reading the blurb. It sounded very different to many books I have read recently and intrigued me.

Lana Green is a writer who has lost the man she loves but is reluctant to let go and move on. When she ends up in a situation where she has no choice but to move on she finds herself meeting a new man and taking on new challenges. 

I really enjoyed this book and following the development of Lana's life and her book. I particularly enjoyed reading about the writing elements of the story, a great touch to the story. Sophie Jenkins writes about a topic that can be quite worrying but in the story it is not seen as something to worry about. She makes you think of life in a different way as Lana finds out. 

A brilliant read. One not to miss.

I really loved this book up to the point when about halfway into the story a very important character reappears. From that point I could not agree with the heroine's choices so I got somehow distanced.
However, I really did enjoy the colourful cast of supporting characters and also, I was contented to see the ending I had hoped for.
It was a really enjoyable and warm story. Admittedly, there is a very serious matter, dementia mentioned, but with warmth and understanding. In fact, one of the best characters was the elderly writer who suffered from dementia.
I will look out for the next books of the author.

I really enjoyed this book, there was just something different about it that drew you in to the story.
Lana is a writer. After her best seller came out she is struggling with her follow up book. In the pub she meets Jack and soon after his step-mum Nancy, who used to be a writer herself, but is now struggling with dementia.
Great supporting characters in the writing group as well.

Highly recommend reading this book.

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for a voluntary review

Solid chick lit…doesn’t take itself too seriously! You’ll laugh, cry, and say “Oh! No!” Definitely a fun weekend read :c)

I normally don't read books that are considered "romance" or "chick-lit," but this one sounded pretty good. After a bestselling book that fictionalized her romance with Mark, Lana is suddenly dumped and broke. She meets Jack, whose stepmother Nancy is a bit of a loose cannon with dementia, and she ends up moving in with Nancy while Jack takes her on fake dates in order to be the hero in her new book. Of course, Mark shows up back on the scene as she and Jack get close. Nancy was the part of the story that made this more my type of book. She was unpredictable and funny, and her story made it more than "just" a romance novel. I enjoyed this more than I expected to, and I'd give it 4 stars.

Now this is a horrible disease, and part of the reason I requested this book. Anyone who has come across anyone with this, is bound to have strong feelings for this book.

I found the characters endearing and all in all a lovely book to read!

Thank you Netgalley for letting me review this book!

The writing was a little strange here and how many times can the word fillip be used in one book? Apparently a lot.

Overlooking the strange writing I really enjoyed reading this book. Nancy was a very realistic character and I found it easy to empathize with Lana's feelings for her.

Not exactly a feel good book but also not a weepie.

Lana's whirlwind romance was immortalized in a popular love story. Her fans, and editor, are asking her "What's next?"

The truth is that she is lonely and bitter after being abandoned. But that will not sell books. A random meeting with Jack breaks her out of her routine. She enjoys their non-dates. She is just trying to find a hero for her next book.

Lana has to downsize if she wants to eat.....leaving her homeless. She takes a job teaching writing and finds a place to live as a companion of Jacks stepmother.

Great interactions and characters. I enjoyed Lanas story.
