About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

He thinks it's fate.

She set the whole thing up.

Mara wants to believe in fate—she's just never had a good reason to. Until now....

After a case of mistaken identity and the appearance of Joe—a gorgeous Austrian cellist—Mara has the chance to set up her own destiny. But life is complicated.... The lido where she works is under threat and her new housemate, Mike, proves to be more than she bargained for.

Will Mara manage to arrange her own happiness? And what if true love is closer to home than she thinks?

An edgy, hilarious rom-com from the author of The Summer Job. For fans of Beth O'Leary, Starstruck and New Girl.

Easy and sometimes annoying listen

The protagonist Mara is quite a complex character, sometimes difficult to like. But that’s what’s great about the book. Complicated characters and not easy right/wrong scenarios. It’s still very light and engaging, but not too simplistic. I enjoyed it. The narration was good! Worth a listen.
